October 18th Results (8 miles & others)

Marathons done, we now focus on halves for the fall. While the training aims primarily at the EWEB Half, a good number of our teammates will run two weeks earlier at Silver Falls.

Thanks to Shivaun for opening the store this morning. And to Laurel for helping on the course, after organizing a group trail run on Saturday.

Next Sunday's distance is nine miles, with an 8:00 start from the Running Company.
