This past Saturday turned out to be a great day for racing.  The morning started off a little chilly, but warmed up slightly for near perfect running conditions.  We even had a short rain shower for 5 minutes to cool us off a little.  We dodged a huge bullet with the storms that ended up coming in later that evening. Congrats to everyone that competed.  We also want to thank all of you that … [Read more...]

The course this week is 12 miles for … [Read more...]
