Recent results – weekend of 8/15/09

Cynthia “C-Lo” sprinted into top 10 in her first CRCA road race.   Her women’s field did five Central Park loops – lap times: 17:12, 15:40, 16:35, 16:09, 16:27.

Lynne “Can I save your life?” Hewitt flew in for a day to Sacramento to run in 88 degrees “Hotter Than Hell 12 Hours” ultra in order to do required 50 miles under 11 hours (her actual time is sub-10 hours) for qualification into Western States 100.  Lynne was second woman and eighth overall (first woman also won race overall and established new women’s race record).  Good luck to Lynne in upcoming Grand Tetons ultra on Labor Day and her progression to ever brutal events.

Gerry “No, I did not tow my blue cooler this race” Louw, a part of fab D&G team, did “reversed duathlon” on Mt. Washington – Bicycle Hillclimb 7.6 miles “overgear interval” followed by the downhill scramble/uphill run of part of the Tuckerman’s Ravine Trail.

And now <drum roll>, the weekend’s ultra duration event award goes to Heather Maloy for her marathon delivery session of 30+ hours!  At the successful finish line, her support crew (Rick) was increased by one – Riley Anson Maloy, 7 lbs. 10 oz. and 20 and 1/2 inches.  Damn these Lifers are so fertile… must be something about the bike saddles?
