It was a gusty Saturday morning for running, though without the 55 mph winds predicted. All the same, we managed to battle a headwind the entire way along the 2.4 mile down Chalybes course. Winners of the second Roxbury Race were Ryan Fox in 14:14 and local leading lady, Theresa Krebs in 16:36. Eric was the first finisher who could have driven himself to the race, Chris was the first finisher who did drive himself to the race.
The race started with a couple guys legitimately trying to run each other into the ground. Perhaps no one told them there is no blue ribbon, no trophy, and no prize money? Only prestigious Roxbury Race Series Points which, while valuable, don't get you anything except bragging rights in December. Welcome back to Kim and Mark, we hope to see more of you both this year. Whitney had a great race in her sharp new shoes. That she let everyone try them on afterwards obviously indicates she thinks more highly of our hygiene than would be expected. Brian was back to his ninja costume. We were dismayed to see Stosh pull up at the turn onto Chalybes with a sore leg. We can't help thinking how it was highly suspicious that Stosh's leg started aching just at the moment Sheldon was passing him. Coincidence? All the same, kudos to Stosh for having the smarts to back off when he's hurting. That said, we hope all our injured runners feel better soon. Dan and Paul in particular we hope will be spending more time running and less time in doctor's offices soon.
Happy birthdays to Russ and to Nate. Congratulate Nate on joining a new age group this year. Congratulations to everyone who ran the Polar Bear race on Sunday. And congratulations to Dirk on completing the Hyannis Marathon in 4:06. Nicely done, Dirk!
Next week, we run the Roxbury 5k down Hemlock and back up. See you there!
