Lobster Loop - Canton and an idea for The New & Improved Brickyarders!

http://www.plattsys.com/m1shell.php?eventid=1843


Mike, Lani, Barbara & Lee ran it. Barbara was 2 minutes quicker than Lee. I expect Lani was ahead of us all. Mike and Lee crossed simultaneously.

Tracy texted Lee last night and wondered if we could revive our Saturday morning runs at Brickyard or a similar place. I see no reason why not. I chatted w/ Mike and Barbara @ the race and they agree. Let's float the idea among our Hartford Track Club and 169 friends on Facebook and thu word of mouth.

Let the New and Improved Brickyarders find our way back to our roots, find new folks to join us. There are a ton of runners that show up at Brickyard on Saturdays. Let's keep Rose's memory alive. I bet there are still rocks out there. I've got some at home I could spread around.

Kennebunk Free Library 5k - July 12, 2019 - Zagata is a Centurion!

Brent placed 1st in 60+. 8:04 pace. Very humid.

I placed 4th in 70-79

Tracy ran 100 miles in Pennsylvania last weekend!

Learned of this race from my friend Kim Brinton whose father died of this disease. Brent and I signed up and ran the 5k this morning. First person we saw when we pulled into he parking lot across from the Yard Goats stadium was Lani 😀

We all placed.

We talked about  Rose's passing and are agreed that the Brickyarders and friends will plan a Rose Reunion Run this summer.  Barbara Kream's dad died yesterday so she won't be able to make either Rose's wake or Rose's funeral (tomorrow evening and Tuesday morning).

We lost a truly great one.

Seeds of Hope 5k and 10k

Brent and I ran the 10k / 5k in East Hampton on Saturday morning, April 27th. This takes place on the same trail as the Ghost Run. The 5kers ran to a turnaround and came back. The 10kers ran to a turnaround that was past the 5kers turnaound and came back. We both "medaled." I ran 13+ pace and Brent ran a  8:56 pace.

Rich Baber directed the race. Money earned goes to The Seeds of Hope organization which supports work in Puerto Rico.

Brickyarders hit the trails

Mike writes ...

Did the Spring Fling preview run with the CT Trailmixers including Tracy, Jason, and Adam. Good to get some trails done. Did two 5K loops. Also did 5 miles on the streets.
