Jose is off for the London Marathon today. We are proud that he has elected to represent Team Nebraska Brooks as he runs the final marathon of his long and successful career. I won’t be at all surprised if Jose wins an age group award in the 70+ category. Corre muy rapido amigo!

The Colorado Running Hall of Fame will induct its newest members a week from tonight. Included in this year’s class is Libbie Hickman. Libbie was Runner’s World magazine’s top female for 1991, 1998, & 2000. She ran the 10000 at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and was a multiple time road and track national champion. Some of my favorite memories of the road racing scene from that era included Libbie making her mark, she is very deserving of this honor.
Post race at the 2008 World Championships Half Marathon in Rio de Janiero. Me with Stephanie Herbst-Lucke, Melissa White, Jill Swope, Dot McMahon, and Kristin Nicolini. Our women finished 4th as a team, our highest ever finish at a World Championships Road Race. Sugarloaf Mountain in the background.
