Shoutout for Donna Morgan – Marine Corp Marathon

I’d like to give a shoutout to Donna Morgan for completing the Marine Corps Marathon last weekend.  Her son ran the marathon too and she was just about 25 minutes behind him.  Way to go!  For those of you who don’t know Donna, she is a regular at Fletcher Park and I suspect that she has run more miles there than anyone else.

Congratulations Donna!

A Shoutout for TJ Thomasson – Nike Marathon

A quick shoutout to Asheville regular runner (and occasional commenter here on this blog) TJ Thomasson who completed the Nike Marathon in San Francisco last weekend (October 18th).  Congrats!

Results of the Southcliff Black and Blue, October 17, 2009

Southcliff Black Race

Southcliff Black Race

Southcliff Black Race

It was fine weather for this event in my book.  Little chance of over-heating and no need for the sun glasses.  Wet leaves and some mud here and there makes the footing a little tricky on the downhill, but that’s what races like this are all about.  We had 92 brave finishers of the Black race and 43 for the Blue race.  Impeccably run by race director Greg Duff, great post race food (thanks to Urban Burrito) and a fabulous fireside setting.

Here are the results of the Black race (Blue results are below Black results )…

Burnsville Town Square Scamper 5k – Burnsville 5k – October 17, 2009

Burnsville Town Square Scamper 5k

Update October 17, 2009 – the results are in …

http://tinyurl.com/scamper09

I ran this race in 2006 and was impressed by the organization and the volunteers and the race itself.  It’s a somewhat challenging 5k, with the start and finish right around the Burnsville Town Square.  When I ran the race in 2006 the organizers included a nice touch when runners would come back into the town square.  An announcer proclaimed “here comes number 212.”

The post-race festivities were very nice, with awards presented indoors (very nice depending upon the weather conditions).

Southcliff Black and Blue – October 17, 2009 – Asheville, North Carolina

Southcliff Black and Blue

Update – here are the results of both races …

http://tinyurl.com/black-blue-09

I always start these postings with “this is a great race”.  Would somebody please slap me?  Of course it’s a great race.  We’re runners and we run races.  But the Black and Blue is very tough without being sloppy.  The “Black” race is 6.5 miles and the “Blue” race is 2.6 miles.  I ran the Black last year and plan to do the same this year.  It’s uphill road for a while and then it’s switchbacks uphill on hiking trails for a couple of miles.  Then it is a downhill haul and the rules change.  Be ready. 

The 10 AM start time is cool and they have some great race food (burritos last year).

Completed the Bethel Half Marathon, October 10, 2009

The temperature was in the low 60s with low-slung clouds in the sky and a few drops of rain now and then as I drove to Bethel for my third running of the Bethel Half Marathon.

The turnout looked good.  I guess there were about 200 runners.  I met a few new running friends – Melissa and Jaime – who greeted me with “you’re the dude with the blog, right?”  I hope you had a great time at the race and look forward to seeing you at races in the future.

We started promptly at 8:30 (I’d expect nothing less from the Bethel organizers – this is one of the most buttoned up, well-run races around with great, helpful, friendly people and amazing post-race food and soup).  At about the two-mile mark we split off from the 5k runners as they head back toward the start and we head out in the country and begin to encounter a few rolling hills.  The course features great scenery and, unfortunately, no shortage of fallen wildlife.  Everyone I spoke with after the race seems to remember the translucent (and quite deceased) frog shortly after the 10-mile mark.

About 3-4 miles into the race a classic David Bowie song – Space Oddity – entered my brain and wouldn’t leave.

Ground Control to Major Tom

Your circuit’s dead, there’s something wrong

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

Can you hear me, Major Tom?

But I was Ground Control and the part of Major Tom was played by my legs.  They just didn’t have much life today and as runners began passing me at a rate I’m unaccustomed to I faced the brutal reality.  I’m bonking.

So I tucked it in, kept running, exchanged pleasantries with the passing runners, enjoyed the scenery and looked forward to the post-race food.  My goal was to break 1:50.  I’ll have to save that for another day.  I slugged across the finish line at 2:00:06.  My third worst half-marathon time out of the 15 half marathons I have run.

But I had some wonderful potato soup and some delicious red bean and rice soup that really hit the spot, replenished my engine and made the bonk another run for the history books.  I had some great chat with running friends afterward and look forward to the Southcliff Black and Blue next week.

Once I see race results I’ll put them up on the blog.
