Weekend Results

The only game in town this weekend was the 40th running the of the Monte Sano Road Races in Huntsville, Alabama.  This difficult 10k-5k combination is run on a 5k course with several cone turn arounds, a gravel road section on the out and back and rolling hills.  The old saying is that if your 10k personal best is on this course, you haven't run many 10ks!  The 10k race starts at 8:00 am and the 5k starts just 90 minutes later.  The 10k was also the Alabama State Championship this year.

Brad Schroeder lead the men, taking 2nd place in 35:33, followed by Eric Charette who was 3rd in 35:42.  On the women's side, it was a 1-2-3 sweep with Candace Jacobs, Katie Maehlmann and Kathy Youngren running 38:45, 43:19 and 43:54 respectively.
