Forty FurlongsFebruary 9, 2008Greg AyresThe Forty Furlongs started this year near the Platte River Bar and Grill, as it did last year, with special thanks again to the owner Frank Redman. Frank provided the use of his parking facilities and donated bottled water, Platte River Bar and Grill T-Shirts and gift certificates. It was a beautiful sunny and mild February day for the 59 runners and one race walker that began the race by heading south on the Mary Carter Greenway Trial. Keith Johnson (46) was the overall male winner with a time of (28:59). Keith Johnson continues to be the top finisher in club races: Clear Creek 4-miler (23:24) on December 8th, Lake Arbor 5K (19:43) on January 5th, and the Aurora Sports Park XC 12K (52:44) on January 19th. Theresa Jockers (46) was the overall female winner with a time of (36:24). The club's most senior runner, Kenneth Green (Stonewall) at the age of 79 completed the race in a time of (61:37). Stephen Tribel, from Glenwood Springs, was in town dropping off his son at the airport. He saw the race listed and joined us before going home. He won his age division (55-59) with a time of (39:52). Out-of-town club members Bob Grassen of Canon City and Jim Peterson and Sandra Rostie from Longmont also participated in the race. I want to personally thank all the volunteers and sponsors that made the Forty Furlongs a successful and safe race. Scott McFarlane (the course designer and official measurer), Joe Sanchez, Connie Ahrnsbrak, Rosalie Murch, Ken Simons, Bob Bussey, Todd Koonce, Mark and Natalie Dreher, and my better half Kelly Chilvers. Also many thanks to all the race sponsors: Platte River Bar and Grill, Running Wild, Road Runner Sports, Runners Roost- Lakewood, Runners Roost- Aurora, Boulder Running Company, Massage Elements, College House Sports, and Great Harvest Bread. |
