A big congrats goes out to my big sis Char for successfully tackling the Beast and having a blast at the 70.3 St. Croix. Perhaps when she finds time--she can have another guest appearance and submit a race report (she is a MUCH better writer than I am). LPC athletes Jane MacLeod and Ralph Iannitelli also conquered the Beast and qualified for the 70.3 World Triathlon Championships! Champions!
Lisa Cheney and Kathy Henry did in fact fly across the finish line at this past Sunday's Flying Pigs Marathon in Cincinnati. Lisa had all the stars align for her while setting a new PB and obliterating her MRP (goal marathon race pace), crossing the line in 3h42min. This time qualified Chainz for the 2009 Boston marathon. In looking at her GPS data--Lisa actually covered 26.2miles in 3h39. The race was delayed due to a fire and had to be rerouted. The last second change to the course added 500m to the marathon!
Kathy Henry came oh so close to qualifying for Boston. It was her second fastest marathon ever, (in a total of 10 marathons) and Kathy will get another crack at the Boston standard in the fall. Champions!
Rob Tranter continued to impress by taking the win at the Path to a Better Heart 5k.
This Sunday will have LPC athletes tackle the Mississauga Marathon and the Forest City Half Marathon.
Happy Training,
Coach James
