July 22nd Results (5.1 miles)

Welcome to the team, Chantelle and Will. And welcome back from varying times away from us, Deb, Kim and Desiree.

As mentioned today, while I’m away next Sunday you runners can still play: Dorris Ranch for a distance of your choice. I’ll preview it in midweek.

I forgot to mention that, by popular request, the team shirts this time will be tanktops. I'll take your sizes in early August.

Thanks for Lindsey for opening the store this morning. And to Neal for helping on the course.

Coburg Half-Marathon Results

Coburg went well. Any time all of ours finish on a hot, sunny morning, it’s a good one. Four of those nine winning age-group awards made this day even better. Leah won hers, Renee placed second in hers, and Chris and Kyoko took thirds in theirs.

Thanks to Kathy B. from the team for volunteering, and to Bill for coming out to cheer. Praise to Piper Ruiz and crew for giving our team special attention.
