I expected a lot from Shannon Suing at Houston yesterday and she didn’t disappoint. She’s been hitting up the Killer Coach marathon training program and it has once again worked its magic.
2:58:54! Nearly perfect splits, sixteenth overall and 1st female in the 35-39 age group. A monster personal best and she’s just scratched the surface of her potential. Darned proud of you Shannon! What a great way to start the year! Glad there is an exclamation point on my keyboard this morning.
Closer to home a few of us headed to Panama for the Udder Buster Half Marathon & 6 Mile. Jim Craig has a well deserved reputation as host of some fun, low key, amenity laden runs around Nebraska. But there was Real Racing going on, and it was Fun.
Stacy Shaw was first female and 4th overall, Brian Bergt was 5th overall and Linda Kunasek was 2nd female and 6th overall. I was 6th in the 6 Mile and had as much fun as anyone could have. Someone behind trying to chase me down, someone ahead faltering and ripe for picking. Succeeded on both accounts and thus smiling afterwards.
