Bellingham
Challenge 5K - Bellingham, MA - April 26, 2009
-
From Martin Auty: As
most of you know we had the warmest weekend since last summer.
Not the best weather to run a race in but I suppose a 5K is a
heck of a lot better than a longer race. The Bellingham
Challenge 5K is aptly named. The course is very
challenging. Having run this course last year I was
aware that the first mile is downhill with a long climb to
mile 2. The last mile is a sloping downhill
followed by a long gradual uphill back to Bellingham High
School. Runners then enter the parking lot and run
around the back of the school to the finish. The last
tenth if flat as a pancake but by then you don't have anything
left to give. About 150 runners in this race I finished
twelfth overall and first in my division. Here comes
summer!

29th Annual Tri-Valley FrontRunner - BOSTON
TUNE-UP - Saturday, April 11th
-
The largest number of finishers ever in this annual event.
With 260 runners crossing the finish line. Also the
largest number of volunteers and loads and loads of sweet
carbohydrates for the runners and spectators. Great job
TVFR's. The weather was light rain, wet roads and a
temperature in of around 40 at race time. The temperature
went down, down down as the race continued finishing at about 36
degrees with a wind chill of 29. All and all a typical
spring day i New England, that didn't deter the runners,
volunteers or spectators. New Member Glenn Miller was the
first Tri-Valley runner in finishing in eighth place and fifth
in his division. Meredith Dutton was the first female
Tri-Valley runner across the line in twelfth place, first woman
and first in her division. Don Basso was third in his
division. New Members Ismael Serrano and Catherine
Wickremeratne had good races . Jerry Sawyer in his longest
race in a few years and Katie Knox and Kathleen Grevers both
with great times. Complete Race Results Here

3rd Rabbit Ramble 5K Road Race - Saturday, April
11th
-
The course is a one loop run starting and finishing at the
Wrentham Fair Grounds. The course is pretty flat and wide
open. I only mention that because with winds was cold and
wet during the race. The field was much smaller than last
year with only 99 finishers down from about 180 last year and
may be related to the weather. I finished fourteenth
overall and second in my division but was in such a hurry to get
to Upton to watch the Tune-Up I didn't stay for the awards.

15th Annual Thomas Giunta 5K - Fall River, MA -
April 5- 2009
-
Over 1000 runners in this race on a breezy but beautiful
day in Fall River. Russell chipping away at his 5K
time with a very respectable sixty-six overall.
From
Russell Fradkin: The Thomas Guinta 5K in Fall
River is an annual memorial event for police officer
Guinta who was killed some 15 years ago in
the line of duty. The race attracts troops of
police, fire fighters, and national
guard from all over the region....the race has grown
every year and this year there were 1038 runners. The
weather was beautiful...cool and sunny,
but breezy. The first mile is all uphill
but then the rest of the course is fairly flat with
few turns.....and lots o' good food at the
finish. The good news is that I finished 66 out
of 1038 and beat my time from my last race
of a month ago by about 30 seconds.
The bad news is that I had hoped to do
better but I wimped out at the 2 mile water stop
and actually had to stop for 15 seconds to
rest my tired out, out of breath
body...my conditioning isn't as good as I had thought
it was apparently. This is one of my favorite races
due to the fact that it is for a good cause,
I like a course with the hill being
at the beginning or the course, the food is great,
and it is a trip down memory lane
for me as I grew up in Fall River.
