The new singlets are sweetdiculous. GRC looked like a dominating contingent before the gun even went off. A job well done everyone. Can't beat free bagels for a year!

+1. Love the new singlets, they really stand out. Also helps when you roll like 4 deep in these picks!

Tex Paul ran his first race in forever. Official result forthcoming, he ran about 2540ish. Not too shabby.

Great GRC debut for the VIKING.

Witty ran incredibly smooth/smart from the start.

Both Wertz and Meyers ran within a few secs of their respective PRs.
