TRC report: Fernando is my hero!

Postby zippetydude » Sat Oct 30, 2010 5:07 pm

Really fun, horribly painful run to the lower tram station this morning, along with about 500 friends (well, friendly people at any rate).

Among the fastest was our own Fernando with a 37 minute time! They had to bring in water trucks to follow just behind him and cool down the pavement after he passed!

Add a few minutes, and I trailed in after him, happy but exhausted. Patty was there also, with an excellent time and looking fresh like it was nothing for her!

Anyone else do the race? I didn't see Cy...

Incidentally, no trails were harmed in the running of this race! :wink:

(Sorry, I always find the controversial topics kinda fun to play with.)

Did you have any weather to contend with?
You guys and gals are amazing. Psycho, too!

Sorry I couldnt make it. I dont have transportation at this time. I heard that Jim Franklin in the over 80 age group did it in 53 minutes :shock:
