Adron turns his focus to the indoor season now but hopes we can field a full team for next fall and compete in the team cross competition.
When your name shows up on LetsRun, you're practically famous. Same goes for a YouTube video that features you three different times. Our distinctive singlet helps a lot...Check Adron out at the start, at 6:21 and at 11:05 of this video too. Looking smooth! Adron rocked Franklin Park yesterday, finishing 24th in 25:15.

Ben enjoyed great weather at Mohawk Hudson this year and came away in 30th place in 2:56:18, good for a 1 second PR. Next up for him? Shelburne Half Marathon on November 1st.
Racing is just more fun with your teammates and it's even more fun when you dominate the podium! At the Downtown 10K, the Bones cleaned up and took home $325 in winnings with Adron (32:01) and Sarah (38:33) taking 1st on each side and Jonnie (34:35) taking 2nd on the men's side. Joe was 6th in 36:34.
In an attempt to remind themselves why they no longer run in circles, Erin and Myke toed the line for the last Mini Meet of the season hosted by GMAA. Erin rocked the 3K in 11:30 and Myke ran the 800 in 2:13, moving up from about 8th with 400 to go to just getting edged for the win. Mature racing at its finest!
Adron's making us proud and keeping our news items alive with another awesome indoor performance at the Greater Boston Track Club Invitational, held yesterday at Harvard. Adron cruised to 3rd in the Men's Invitational 800, proving that all that training on our 160 meter indoor track is paying off.
Welcome to 2015! Tis the season for sponsorship renewals and offers, membership renewals and race planning. Look for lots of big announcements over the coming weeks as we all figure out our schedules and announce a bunch of new Olde Bone teammates.
Laurel kicked off the New Year by running the 4 miler in New York City right at midnight. Results were a little funky, but she posted a 27:25 and had a blast with friends at midnight. Sarah kicked off the New Year with a race as well, but waited until New Year's Day at 11 for her 2015 debut. Burlington was windy and cold but she came away with the win in the First Run 5K, a great way to kick off a year. A bit late on this update...
Laurel continued her PR streak at the Wolf Hollow Half Marathon, running a 1:37:05 a mere five weeks after her huge performance at the Baystate Marathon. Laurel reports that the course was hillier than she remembered and that she felt her marathon late in the race but exclaimed that a "PR is a PR!!" She was 3rd in her age group and 5th overall. Congratulations on an awesome fall season, Laurel! It was a big racing weekend for us! Despite tough weather with gusting winds (up to 40 mph on Saturday and averaging 24 miles per hour on Sunday) and serious humidity, we were out on the roads rocking our black singlets.
On Saturday, Funch ran the GMAA Common to Common 30K, an out-and-back (sort of) rolling course through the farmlands east of Burlington and came home with the win. His time of 1:52:45 put him just over 6 minute pace on the challenging course and marks him down as one of the fastest winners in course history. On Sunday, Sarah and Laurel exchanged some early morning texts worrying about the wind but showed up to the race nonetheless. As we're both at the peak of marathon training (Sarah's taper starts this week and Laurel's next week), neither felt fantastic but came home in hard fought 3rd and 5th place. This coming weekend, Funch and LT head to the Adirondacks for a Ragnar Relay and perhaps another team win! Despite dicey weather and a team-wide post race game of "did I pee or is this sweat," we enjoyed a morning together at our first USATF race. Unfortunately, because Seth was off winning alumni races in Canton and Will, Ben and Todd were "training" (we suspect sleeping), the guys team wasn't able to score. The girls team, however, is on the board with a 9th place finish despite having only 3 runners to other teams 20 to 30 runners.
Adron 53:46 with the fastest 200 at the end of a 15K, possibly ever, requiring an apology to the guys he outkicked Funch 54:55 Sarah 1:02:55 Laurel 1:08:27 Elodie 1:11:00 Onward and upward for most of us for fall races. Adron and Sarah race again next weekend, at the Essex Citizens Cross Country race and Archie Post 5 Miler respectively. Chris deserves his own sentence, as his goal race (The Lobsterman Triathlon) is next weekend. Laurel keeps her eyes on Baystate, her marathon in October and Elodie is looking forward to finally being moved into Burlington and having the time to pick her next race. |
