Race Recap By Roy Miller:

I hadn’t done a 5K yet this year and figured I would give this one a shot. Great to see so many other Team ER members there. We lined up for the course and as Mickey started counting down the last 10 seconds before the start mother nature played a fun trick on us and it began to snow! Of course I was in shorts and our new green short sleeve shirt. A nice out and back course with several turns. I was trying to stay as consistent as I could without going out too fast. Made the turnaround and felt pretty good still. I climbed the last little hill and tried to push to the line. I finished 16th overall and 1st in my age group. 23:29 official time. I was alright with that but know I have some training to do as I have the goal of getting back to a 20:00 5K this year. I will be back next year for sure!

Race Recap By Nancy Wardell:

Great morning for a long drive and run in Cleveland today at the St Malachi Church Run! I finished my 5 miles with a 9:20 pace and overall time of 46:36!

This race was a very flat course except for one incline at the end. All turns we’re marked very clearly and tons of food at the end!!! Can even donate canned food for the churches food drive to help those in need and volunteers were awesome!

Congratulations to my other teammates who were out there too.  Thanks for warming up with me Cleopatra Sirnic and enjoying the experience!

Race Recap By Steve Zenar:

I had a wonderful time running the 45th Annual St. Malachi Church Run/Walk! The 5 mile race was very well organized and was absolutely packed with runners today which was no surprise due to the awesome weather. This was my first time running this race and I really enjoyed the scenic course passing through downtown Cleveland. I also enjoyed the free beer to wrap up the morning . It was great seeing some Team-ER team members at the race.

Get Lucky 25K

Canal Fulton, Ohio

Christine Churpek

Finish Time:  2:12:34

Overall Place:  8th Place / 46

Division Place:  2nd Place Overall Female

Race Recap By Christine Churpek:

I ran the Get Lucky 50/50 25K this morning and placed 2nd Overall Female (I don’t think there were very many 25K participants, but I’ll take it)! Beautiful course with a chilly start. This race was tough for me, and paces that were once easy for me are not anymore. I know if I stay consistent with my training, I will chip away at my time and get back to where I was 2 years ago!
