Race Results

It was a good weekend of racing for Run S.M.A.R.T. clients...

In Leesburg, VA at the Harris Teeter 20k, Run S.M.A.R.T. coach Ben Koch and client Frank Sprtel, had a nice effort this Sunday morning to tune up for their fall marathons. Both started off together around marathon goal pace, clicking off at 5:40's and then working their way up the pack. Ben finished 4th in 1:08:34 and Frank was 6th in 1:09:24. View results here. Ben is gearing up for Marine Corps. in October and Frank will be running in Twin Cities in October as well. Keep it rolling guys...

In Chicago, IL at the Lasalle Bank Distance Classic (half marathon), Christen Meyer rolled to a first place masters finish in 1:22:12. View results here. She was 6th female overall in a very competitive field. The game plan was to start of conservative in the 6:20's and run negative after the first 4 miles. She did exactly that averaging 6:17 pace with a monster last mile split of 5:51. Congrats Christen! Keep it rolling into the fall...

Lots of racing to come from many of our athletes...so it should be an exciting fall.
