Number of Finishers- 298
Number of Females- 131
Number of Males- 167
Average Time- 27:16
Top ten men shook out like this:

    1 Garrett Kenyon        Omaha NE            20 M     1/14     15:20  4:57 
    2 York Thomas           Omaha NE            26 M     1/18     15:34  5:01 
    3 Eric Noel             Lincoln NE          27 M     2/18     15:45  5:04 
    4 Kyle Johnson          Seward NE           30 M     1/15     15:50  5:06

   10 Wyatt McLeod          Lincoln NE          16 M     1/17     16:10  5:13

Top 5 under 16 and 16 runners under 17:00.  Who’s this Marsh fella and is he really 40?  Pete Kostelnick continues to amaze as he followed up his little 135 Mile Badwater stroll with a 17:23.  From near death to 5:36 pace, cat has range.

And the Women:

1 Hayley Sutter          25 Lincoln         NE   18:21  5:55 
    2 Megan Zavorka Thomas   27 Omaha           NE   18:33  5:59

   10 Beth Stutzman          51 Milford         NE   21:25  6:54

NRGE’s Mike Wasson took the overall at the Run to the Rescue 8 Mile in Prague, NE.  His time of 50:38 was almost a minute and fifteen up on second place Trey Seibel (51:50).
Number of finishers- 49

The Boxer 500 had over 536 runners, no significant times.
Number of finishers- 536
Number of Females- 319

Average Time- 37:19
We had a good turnout at the Bar None for Sunday’s run.  Blistered my hands lassoing  Amber Sargent’s molten talent.  Wresting the unharnessed is never easy and this filly has as much Real Runner as anyone I’ve ever wrangled.  She’s kicking less these days and I continue to whisper 2:43, 2:43, 2:43.
