Rio Abajo Days

Christian Krueger recently ran the the Rio Abajo Days half-marathon. Well, he had planned to run it until he showed up on race morning and noticed there would be less competition in the full marathon. Naturally, and despite a 10 mile training run the day before, he entered the marathon and decimated the field. He did so well that his halfway split was so fast that it was only ONE minute behind the winning half-marathon time. Way to go Christian!

If anyone else ran in the race, let us know how you did.
