TECUMSEH Finale

Hey Al!

Eventful to say the least. Woke up to 4" of snow ontop of the cars outside of the hotel room the morning of the marathon. Bus drivers refused to drive the runners to the start so the race director changed the point to point aspect of the run to an out and back from the finish. Oh, and we had to find our own way to the finish line! We started the race on time and 700 brave souls headed out on the mostly single track course with snowflakes sticking to our eyelashes!

Al finished with an impressive 4:01, BGR received a "valiant effort" after having to drop at mile 21 due to a possible bone break in his foot. Amy #2, Special K, and Dave finished together at 5:02, Stain muscled through some cramping legs with a time of 5:35 (I think) and Amy Danger Hain cut nearly a half an hour off her time at 6:08. Good job to all despite the changes and terrain, weather conditions etc . . .

This was an awesome weekend. Hope to have a few pics to post possibly video.......
