The Mountain Milers had a full contingent at the Chino Valley Territorial Days 10K on Sat 8/30.  When I locate the times, I will post them.  The rest of this is from memory so forgive any miscues...

Pete Mayer finished 13th overall and won his age class! Pete finished in 49:28. 

Ken Ekman finished 15th overall and won his age class in 50:04!

Dan Munsell finished 22nd overall was 2nd in age class in 51:34!

(after the race Dan said all he saw was my backside but that wasn't true - as all I was his backside for the first half of the race...) ---  

Steve Orth finished 29th overall and was 3rd in age class I believe! 55:17!

Deb Cowell won her age class too finishing just behind Steve in 38th in 57:59!

Jessica Leary was 55th in 1:03.48 fresh off of a return to training. She also finished in the top 3 of her age class and medaled!  

John Erickson finished top 3 in his age class and also medaled.  Way to go John - 71st in 1:12.09!

6 of us are pictured with medals (John had to bail out) on the first page of the website thanks to Dan M. and will remain there probably forever! 

Many thanks as always to our resident photographer - Julie Munsell!  And it was good to see Dan "Boston Marathon" Pemble - who didn't run but has returned to training.  Dan P helped with the official timing. 

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't have the detail yet but Steve Orth and Dan Munsell (84th and 85th of nearly 150 in 53:50!) returned to racing the next day, Sunday 8/31 in the 4.6 mile Jerome Hill Climb.  Per Dan, it was a fun day --- Dan carried a camera and took a bunch of pics during the race!

Newsflash

Heidi Schuette was given a "little" surprise sendoff by the entire Lincoln School student body and all the teachers today, April 15th - they faked an assembly to honor Tax Day?  (I am not quite viewing that as an honor but I think Heidi was quite surprised!)

I HOPE EVERYONE GOT TO SEE HEIDI'S PIC ON THE FRONT PAGE OF THE THURS (4/17) COURIER!!! 

Students got dressed up, a mock torch was run into the overflowing auditorium by a Lincoln student, Heidi was presented with several gifts and even the Pioneer Press was in attendance! 

I can't imagine anyone deserving this more as Heidi is a friend to everyone and not just one of the most talented runners we will ever meet - she is the highest of "HIGH CLASS".  I am probably as excited to go to Boston this weekend to see her run as she is running!  Of course, there is a little more pressure on her - but hey I have pressure on me too - making sure I have the camera ready!  

NOW THIS WAS A COOL DAY!!  Even better than one of those "dream" training runs that most of us have rather frequently!  Some of us have frequently?  OK, so maybe we only have once a year if ever????

Good luck Heidi - just running with the best marathoners in the country is special beyond anything I could say here.

This is not an afterthought but congrats to Dan and Serena who qualified for the Boston marathon this year and will be running the day after Heidi's Olympic trails race!  I haven't seen Serena for awhile but I know Dan Pemble is ready and will run a super race - no more 33 mile Grand Canyon training runs till after the race, Dan.
