We had several strong performances on the roads this
weekend, highlighted by Kerry's big PR of 1:19:26 at the Brooklyn Half
Marathon, which capped off a great season.
Kerry was in fantastic shape this spring, and even though she was
limited by a nagging injury, she ran several significant PRs, and demonstrated
that she is a legitimate candidate for the 2020 Olympic Trials marathon. We're going to see much more from her in the
months ahead.
At the Germantown, 5 Mile,
Kevin got the win in 25:28, employing his trademark start slow, finish fast
race plan. Kevin has been out of action
since last summer due to a persistent injury, and despite his repeated protests
that he's not in very good shape, he proved otherwise on a challenging
course. Pat K had a successful tuneup
for the half at Grandmas with his sixth place finish in 26:33, which may have
been an over-40 PR. It may have
been a PR because Pat isn't sure, which goes to prove how forgetful folks his
age can be.
Dave O'Hara took second in a highly competitive field at the Woodson HS 5k, running 16:31. He gave deference to Woodson standout Bobby Lockwood, who will take his talents to Nashville to run for Libscomb University. GRC Toddler Greta O'Hara did not start.
