NETT Continues the Summer Tradition at the Corrib Classic 5K

The NETT Mini Ponies kicked off the summer racing season in what's become an annual tradition by racing the Corrib Classic 5K in West Roxbury.

It was a great day, with some strong performances. On the men's side, Crazy Dave and Chris Smith took 1-2 in the master's race, (4th and 7th overall). It was a particularly impressive run for Chris, given he ran the Rhody 5K earlier in the day, as did Steve Peckiconis, who took fourth in his age group. (How do these guys DO it?)

On the ladies' side, Adrienne and Tina outdid Dave and Chris by finishing 4th and 6th in the women's field, Tina the first master. Also, the speedwork has been paying off for Doris, who had a strong run on a hot day, and NETT pals Victoria ran well with Alissa's pacing help.

After the race, it was back to Doris and Dave's for the annual post-race cookout, with a long list of NETT members and pals and some surprise guests!
