Danvers 5k

Was there something in the Water? At 6:40pm I was sitting on a stool at Cody’s and counted 7 runners. So I was thinking to myself, “small group tonight, that’s Ok, I have a head cold, and I’m a little whiney” So 15 minutes, and 24 people later, I’m yelling “GO” and watched one of most interesting runs to date begin to unfold one stride at a time. We had 5 First time runners, 5 Personal records, A new Course Record, and A new Female Course Record. To think, I was going to let a little thing like a COLD rob me of being a part of a night like tonight, I think not.

We had a perfect night for a run, with clear skies and a light breeze to keep everyone cool. 

We had a total of 37 runners this week and I’m very proud to say that the entire group finished in under 28 minutes.  Wow, I do believe you all have set a new PR for the D5k fun run.

Chris Soucy finished 1st once again with a time of 19:08.  James DeLuca finished close behind with a time of 19:15.  Annie Rose came in third this week with a time of 19:23, with Crystal Anthony right on her tail with a time of 19:24.  Billy Prentiss came in fifth with a time of 20:35. 

Welcome to our new-b’s this week; Dan Foley 22:43 and Jeff Pomroy 23:06.

Due to some last minute technically difficulties I was not able to get any photos this week. 

See you all next week, armed with a camera!!
