" Well I finished Mohican 100 mile trail run 3 hours faster then last year. I tied for 17th place with three other people out of 208. We grouped up and pushed each other throttle the last grueling 15 miles. The minimas t110 were great. I'm feeling pretty good besides having tight Achilles tendons."

Albert Noah sent in the following race report from Down Hill at Dawn:

"PR’d at (Mostly) Downhill @ Dawn! Wasn’t expecting that at all!

My training for the past couple months has been almost nonexistent and I have been running races by the seat of my pants. Hopefully that will change over the summer but who knows. J

I would like to thank Greg Jackson because he is the reason that I PR’d! I was planning on having a leisurely long run rather than race a half marathon. Unfortunately, at the turnaround Greg caught my attention and said “Hey Albert!”, and like a kitten after a ball yarn I just had to give chase. I thought I had no chance of catching him but the chase is part of the fun. Greg and I are fairly evenly matched as far as running goes. Sometimes I beat him, sometimes he beats me, but that's what makes it fun.

I'm not sure if my chasing him had any affect on his race but I know he PR’d also. So thanks Greg! My calves are SORE, my quads are trashed, and my glutes hurt and it's all your fault. Thanks for the PR buddy, I owe you one!"
