TS 2.5 Mile Results

Good work to everyone who gave this run a shot! Some folks had epic runs, some folks had epic fails! We have a few pretty solid times… I know I'm impressed with the podium finishers this week. Marcus breaks 8 minute miles and tops out with a sub 5 min pace! Jay looks to have started strong but has some technical difficulties, which keeps him out of the ranks for a 2nd week. Due to lameness and laziness, some of us didn't even get started this week! So, here are the results and the updated point standings…

2.5 Mile Run

1. Marcus - 19:21; 7:45/mile; 188 HRA
2. Brian - 21:18; 8:31/mile; 158 HRA
3. Zac - 21:45; 8:40/mile; n/a
4. Laura - 25:31; 10:13/mile; 180 HRA
5. Maggie - 25:58; 10:09/mile; n/a
6. Cathy - 30:02; 12:01/mile; 167 HRA
7. Mom - Completed - Time Unknown!!
8. Jay - Tech Difficulty - Approx pace = 8:15/mile
9. Ricky - NO RUN
10. Adam - NO RUN

Points

1. Marcus - 6
2. Zac - 5
T-3. Laura - 4
Jay - 4
Ricky − 4
Brian - 4

This week has put a big swing on the point standings. Marcus has climbed with the past two events to grasp the lead. Third place is tight, one point behind Zac in a stand alone 2nd place. Everyone looks to have had a good time. We need to concentrate on getting the heart rate monitors, although Marcus is tearing it up with a high 180's average this week. Tough courses go to Zac and Maggie with over 150 feet of climbing… more than our Colorado runners!

This week… 9 mile TT! Let's strive for 100% participation! Try to take multiple pics of your course, ride, and self portrait! Ride anytime between now and Sunday at midnight for participation points… and Mom, upload your time!

Stay Safe… good week!

Laura and I are going to be leaving for Florida tomorrow afternoon so we won't be able to ride in this event unfortunalty. We were going to to ride yesterday but we wanted to complete our marathon training weekly long run (13mi) with our training friend before we left. So... unless we can keep the event open through next Tuesday we'll have to bow out. I must say it's a nice feeling to be a top the podium with the yellow jersey!
