Yikes, how is it Friday already! Well, here are some slightly tardy race results from last weekend. We have often said that you can PR most shorter races about 3 weeks after an IM as you are in such great aerobic shape. Kim Essendrup raced a ½ marathon in the UK named the Marlow ½ marathon and PR’d the distance at 1:55 exactly three weeks after he raced Kona! Well done, Kim!
Congrats to everyone who raced the Women’s ½ marathon on Sunday. Elaine Rayski finished in 2:17. Lisa Hawkins set her PR at 1:55 and Funmi Aranmolate finished her first ½ marathon in 2:46! In the 5K race, Laura Miles ran to second overall place with a time of 23:09!
Over in the Phoenix 10K, Bella Panchmatia finished in 50:40 which was just a few minutes off of her PR despite fighting a recent hamstring injury. Guarav Parekh finished in 44:07, running 6:53 miles.
Great job everyone!
