Runnin' of the Green 7k.. Getting Stronger!

Had a great turnout at Sunday's Runnin' of the Green! Greg, Natalie, Jason and Erik showed up to race in the event at LoDo. Erin, Heather and Ryan were there in support mode.

All in all it was a great event. Beautiful mid-March weather, Irish festivities and the spectacle of 5500+ runners clad in green. MORFers agreed that it was a fun course, but that short road running races are brutal! It capped off a great weekend of training, and getting tired legs up to speed from a long Saturday on the bike was just what the doctor ordered for this time of year. And the corned beef bagel sandwiches taste pretty good! Who would have thought?

Results. Short summary... Greg spanked the other MORFs with a respectable pace coming off his "Fire and Ice" victory; Jason and Natalie flew across the line. Erik learned how not to start a road race (went out way too hard, cracked and walked).
