And from Dave M. out at the Greenway Challenge a multisport relay (or solo event if you're REALLY crazy like the Queen):
"This year's course consisted of 3 running legs of 3.8 (road), 2.5 (trail with the last 3/4 on pavement) and 3.35 (road); 3 biking legs (13.7, 13.8, 21.4) and 2 paddling legs (4.5 river and 1.5 lake). I was once again on the Great Canadian team, which is a canoe & kayak store a friend of mine owns, and we won for the 5th time in the last 6 years. Our winning margin of right about a minute (after 4.5 hours) was the closest of all our victories. We did it with 1 runner, 1 biker and 2 paddlers."
Jennifer S (of course) did it solo (all bow), finishing as 1st solo woman and either 5th or 6th overall (out of 19 soloists) beating many of the relay teams. Quite impressive. (Photo of Jennifer at 2005 Greenway--how can someone do that kind of event and SMILE the whole way???)
Dave managed 21:15 (5:35's), 14:48 (5:55's) and 18:57 (5:39's). The 1st run was basically flat and fast. The 2nd was on very soft trail. Flat terrain but tough footing. The last run was rolling but net downhill. "I was definitely feeling the burn on the 3rd leg so was happy to sneak under 5:40's and hold off a good runner (who was also fresh) from the 2nd place team," he says.
Details and results will be available at www.greenwaychallenge.org
On Sunday, John Kinneee won the Down and Dirty Duathlon in Lynn. John won the first run split, the bike split and the second run split!! Yikes. Results here.
And out at the Harvard Apple Ramble 10-miler the team of Kjaersgaard and Wang ran great with Frank clocking a 1:03 and Tina continuing to impress with a 1:11. Nice work on a tough course! Full results here
