Busy race weekend! Congrats to the group that made the trip West for the Phoenix Marathon, some great times were posted on a warm Saturday morning and great overall placing and age group placings were made at the Cummins Falls Marathon in Tennessee on a very hilly course. Sunday brought more marathon action in New Orleans, Congrats to everyone that made the trip and took on the Big Easy and the Cowtown Marathon in Fort Worth.
Saturday also kicked off the Triple Crown of road racing in Louisville and the George Rogers Clark 10 miler in Vincennes and Evansville was very well represented in both events.
Then there was the off-road racing, it looked like a big group took on the muddy trails at Angel Mounds for the Bound the Mound events, a great morning for this event as well as the 3rd weekend of River Run Training....Spring is definitely on it's way!
Good Luck this weekend to everyone running the Run into Madness 7k here and the St. Clement Church 5k in Boonville on Saturday and to the big group heading to Arkansas for the Little Rock Marathon on Sunday, have a safe trip and make sure there is room in the car for those medals.
Running in Evansville.....couple of choices once again, the River Run Training takes off again this Saturday from Ultimate Fit at 7:00 for 5 miles, those interested in running out to the Eastside from the Y comment below or on Facebook, Walnut/Vann/Washington/Green River to Ultimate Fit, around 5 miles out and 5 miles back.
