Miscellaneous Odds and Ends
As my feet are propped up, there are a couple of items that I noticed and wanted to note:
1.) There were four (4) runners at the Huntsville Half Marathon that truly deserve a "shout out." Led by a gentleman named Glenn Remmert, they are from a group known as the El Rey Track Club that frequents the Run The Woodlands 5K Series quite a bit.
Glenn paced youngster Adam Goerlich (15-19) to a 2:37:20 finish while he crossed 19 seconds later. Two other adults that are associated with the group, Fernando Anduze and Ines Perez, came across the line about 10 minutes later in times of 2:47:53 and 2:47:54, respectively.
(What I forgot to mention when I originally posted this on Saturday night is that Glenn and other adults are helping a number of youngsters improve their running skills on a regular basis at Run The Woodlands 5K and many of them have made great improvements thanks to their efforts. Adults do that because it is the right thing to do, but they deserve a little recognition for the effort -- and that goes also to all of those HARRA volunteers this weekend who worked the Marathon Kids kickoff today.)
2.) In today's Jameson 5K on the campus of Southwestern University in Georgetown, the Schrader family, who were semi-regulars at Run The Woodlands 5K from 2000-2002, took home a lot of hardware. Everyone except Dad!
Lea, 40, was the overall Female Master's winner in a time of 21:25.2. Older daughter, Maddee, 14, was 2nd in the 14-19 age group in 21:33.6 while younger daughter, Bree, 12, won her 13-and-under age group in a time of 20:33.7.
Chris, 47, was 6th in the 40-49 age group while pacing Bree with a time of 20:35.4.
Their Run The Woodlands 5K PRs were as follows: Chris (19:50), Lea (19:51), Bree (21:47) and Maddee (23:00).
