Recent Marathon & Half-marathon Results
Three SSR'ers recently completed some long races. Robert visited Sin City in order to run
the Las Vegas Marathon. And boy did he! revenged his nearmiss in San Diego and clocked a 3:56! Full results are www.lvmarathon.com. In fact, he was tenth overall!! Out of all New Mexicans, that is. Great job, Robert!
Linda and Gerry ran (and placed, I believe) in the
Rio Grande Half-marathon but we are still waiting for their results
to be posted on www.riograndemarathon.com.
Southwest Championship Series
The 2005 season is over for the world’s oldest Triathon and Duathlon
series. Socorro athletes can be proud this year, there are 4 champions
in our midst. Ephraim Ford so dominated his age group with 69.75 points
that none dared to challenge him. Julie Ford took second in her age group
with 72.25 points, although there is no shame to finishing second to Shanna Armstrong.
Rheda Brown finished second of the Athena category with 49 points.
Christian Krueger took third in the Elite category with 51.125 points (7 races).
Matt Perini was pushed into fourth in his age group with 52.375 points in just the
last few races. Matt’s age group was tough, with a total of 8 qualifiers with 8 or
more races, more than any other group. Robert Abernathy qualified in the same group,
finishing 8th with 37.125 points. (Yes, I know I was last, you don’t have to point it
out. And, yes, I did have the lowest point total of any 8 race qualifier, how
clever of you to notice.) Final results are here.
2005 Fat Tire Fiesta
The annual off-road bicycle festival was held over the weekend of September 16-18.
There were a total of 62 participants, exceeding expectations. Many positive comments
about the rides with high expectations for next year. The committee is already working
on the new schedule. And the M Mountain ride will be back, with (we can only hope) a
slightly easier approach to the peak
