A non-competitive race to start the year. Zann walked the 5K. Well done event.

South of Tucson near huge coppper mine. Good small event, decent course. Ran out of medals. Lost pace on the inclines. Medal was later mailed!

Reid park - Tucson. Lots of parking and facilities. Low key event, long time to awards. Long line for pancake breakfast with coffee so I skipped it. 74 year old I met in Marana set State record for 10K. Awards were merchandise from local running store.

Low key event, lots of kids. Fund raiser for Green Fields school. Out and back course - mostly along river wash trail. Good pancakes after race. Unique awards - clay fired medals made by students.

Mountain Trail run, very rocky trail, nearly fell twice. I was beat after 2 miles and continued cautiously. Great breakfast after race, nice shirt, easy to get to from Sabino Canyon area. Couldn't enjoy the scenery as any misstep would have caused major injuries - kept my eyes on the trail. One missed turn cost a minute or so.

Small event, flat course, race day sign-up. Overcast day with storm coming in tonight. Zann walked the course. Very tired after Thursday training run up/down Sabino Canyon. Picked up the pace after getting passed by a 78 year old.

Small first time event, course along the Santa Clara River wash west of the airport and I-19. On the bike trail. Ribbons for awards. Did get a shirt with race day registration. Got slower with each mile.

Very windy/chilly before the race. Wore multiple shirts to stay warm. Good 2nd mile. Pleased to get 1st place in 65-69. Best race since last November.

Decent run - no age group competition this year. Major FUBAR with the bib numbers - race delayed by 20 minutes to get everyone's number into the computer system.

Disappointed in my time - expected to be close to 25 minutes. Nice heavy medals this year. Food tent and awards ceremony outside - might be a problem if it's raining or snowing.

A very warm day for a change. Felt good to be in a short sleeved tech shirt. Matt ran the race too. A little faster than last year but faded badly after 2.5 miles.

Cold biting wind. Very overcast. Didn't start to rain until after mile 6. Got very chilly waiting for awards. Another RRCA State Championship!

Weather cleared at the last minute - actually got too warm about half way through. Better pace than last couple of races. 5 year string of 1st places for this race!

Little training doesn't help racing!! About a minute slower than last year.

Monsoon off the Lake with some rain at the start and finish. Very nasty!

Chilly, windy, wet day. First time for this race - very well done. Easy parking; good race day price.

Warm and humid, OC. Seems strange to be worried about the heat! First time for this race, low key, no mile markers, $30 race day fee with tech shirt. Parking could be any issue if race gets much larger. Timing problem so no results available at the race.

First time for this race. Early registration fee $25 - tech shirt, pancake breakfast after race, good, fast course (rural roads rectangle). Easy to get to, good parking and restroom facilities.

Hot & humid. Lots of shade on this course but I ran out of energy by 3 miles. Near 80 by end of race. Parking is an issue - need to arrive early to find a spot with no parking restrictions. Never know if CPD will issue ticket (none seen). Simple white cotton shirt so this is a little on the expensive side for a 10K. Didn't feel like eating anything so I can't comment on the food.

Large raceday turnout - had to get more bib numbers/chips. Quite humid.

Really ran out of energy around half way. Added nearly a minute per mile. Last race as a 60 something.

Very humid - couldn't maintain my 9:00 minute target pace.

Surprise birthday party organized by family. Cake for everyone. Good day for a run. Matt and Liana ran - Liana beat me for the first time at 5K.

Not much energy after the big birthday weekend. Matt ran this one too.

Very humid - had to walk for about 30 seconds at the half way point.

Enjoyed the beer but not the run this year. Couldn't close on Fred. Major timing FUBAR - late awards.

99°-Hotest temperature I've ever raced in - day time highs over 100°. Really struggled to make it through the race without walking.

Too much heat! Over 105° today. Thought I could do better than the night before but I was out of gas less than a mile into the race. Walked some in the 3rd mile. What an ordeal! Beer & burgers were good.

Course slightly longer than last year - may now be too long. Good, low cost ($15 race day no shirt), low key event.

Great weather given the last 10 weeks of heat and humidity. RRCA Regional Championship event so I'm now a 6 time RRCA age group Champion (3 Regional, 3 State)!

Revised course from last year - much better. Very tight race with Fred - less than 30 seconds ahead at the end. Great trophies for all award winners.

Challenging road course that crosses into Michigan for about half the run. Needed 1 more water stop, starting signal was confusing,; plus a few other logistics issues. Award medal was unique and appropriate - included event name, year, age group and place

Good, cool weather day so I hoped to hit around 42:30. Actually exceeded that by doing reverse split (that gentle incline in the first half takes it's toll). Didn't expect to place in a 65+ group with nearly a 1000 runners but I got a nice surprise. Norm was 1st and Malcom 3rd.

Nothing left in the tank after yesterday's race plus mowing the lawn. Fred easily beat me by 2 minutes - mostly after the sandy areas.

Gray. Overcast with threatening rain. Held off until the last mile. Very good value -only $30 race day fee including shirt. Did maintain pace near 9 minutes the entire race - target was 2 hours.

Very disappointed by this race. Ludicrous age groups (only 1 award - a printed certificate per age group) and race distances more like 3M/6M than 5K/10K. Same distance to finish from the last mile marker. I won't be doing this one again.

Decent price with shirt on race day. Good traffic control. Long time spent on drawing/raffle. Awards haven't improved. Couldn't catch Fred. Bob had a good run on his new knees!

Great competition each year. First time for an award here! Great sweatshirt, good food, scenic run - a little windy this year. Norm went to the race with me - his first time at this one.

Poorly run event - Matt's registration lost. Mile markers off (double loop!), poor water stops, mediocre awards.

Age groups and awards suck! Not prepared to run out here in AZ yet. Over 5 minutes slower than last year. Very low key event.

1st Place 1000 Points
Fred Fleming 2nd
Gideon Falk 3rd
