October 21st Results (9.1 miles, etc.)

Maybe we should have run the Owosso loop after all, instead of making the late change. It would have been our last chance for several weeks. I learned today that the footbridge on the EWEB Half route will close soon for repairs.

Thanks to Lindsey for opening the store today. She’s a week away from her marathon in Boise.

The country's biggest month for marathons moves along nicely for us. David Blankenship handled the tough Columbia Gorge course today.
