Whew! 30 of our OEG mates taking it to the streets. Thanks Coach John for compiling the list, I would have surely missed someone. Extremely proud of each and every one of you. You worked your butts off and achieved the finish line, an outstanding accomplishment for all! This is why Coach Linda, Coach Kelly, Coach John, and I love what we do on Wednesday nights!

Amee Rief and Katie Cords share a relaxing moment just prior to the start. Amee would go on to an 18:00 personal best in the half!
Kathy Palmer and Angie Ross both overcame major obstacles for their chance to conquer the mean streets of Lincoln.
Coach John Tully couldn’t be happier to have daughter Stephanie, wife Cindy, and sister Molly share a family achievement. The Tully’s that run together, have fun together!
Our Good Mate Matt Schneider has both arms in casts and is bruised and bloodied after being hit by a truck while running last night. He is lucky to be alive, thanks for keeping his speedy recovery in your prayers and meditations. Wife Meghan is certainly going to have her hands full for the next few weeks, better say some for her too.
Tomorrow: Some final thoughts on the Lincoln experience.
