Sweet Success!

Before we get to the sweet success.... Thursday's routes are posted on the right hand side of the blog...   I got it done... whew...    Now... more importantly...

Congratulations to all of you who completed the Boston Marathon! What a great accomplishment! Several area runners competed and ran fantastic.  If you're in search of results, the can be found  HERE

One of the finishers is Team R.E.D.'s own Renee Saxman... she had a whirlwind tour, not only running her personal best Boston time, but also being able to meet some very notable runners... ahem.. in fact she met Americas top dog, Ryan Hall! I'm very excited for her and can't wait to hear the stories! See Renee's blog for more details on her visits with the big shots!

Of course, local man does good too!  Byron grad  Pete Gilman finished 38th overall in a time of 2:25:40... that's a screaming 5:34 per mile pace!

Ahhhh... the marathon is such an awesome race, this quick ad embodies the fact we can achieve what we set out to achieve!



Speaking of achievements. Our own Mary Dykes had quite a nice one herself this past weekend as she completed her first half marathon! Be sure to congratulate her.. that is fantastic! I'm sensing quite a strong desire to drive on for more! Way to go Mary! Below are some pics of her at the Earth Day Half Marathon in St Cloud.
