Race Recap By George McFall:

I didn’t share it on social media or tell my friends. Sometimes we lose sight of why we do what we do. Is it for us or to satisfy others? I wanted to do this race for me. I ran the Glass City Marathon 3 weeks ago and was feeling really good so I wanted to go after that BQ again. And no matter what happened out there today, I would be OK with the outcome. And guess what, I am. I crossed the finish line in 3:45:12. Well off where I needed be. I’ll spare you the details. The Cleveland Marathon was my 1st marathon back in 2010 and today, when I crossed the finish line, it became my 24th overall marathon. I love the marathon distance. I keep coming back to it. There will be good days and bad days. It’s about showing up everyday, putting in the work and giving it everything you have on race day.

Race Recap By Nancy Wardell:

I had fun running at the Great Guernsey 10k Trail race in Cambridge this morning! Weather was pretty good, but slightly humid. Trails were beautiful with a simple out and back run. I finished at 1:05:43 with a pace of 10:36 and finished 3rd in my age group! Congratulations to fellow Teammate Kris Engstrom who finished 2nd male overall! He crushed it today! They had a great award ceremony afterwards too with hot dogs, hamburgers, bananas, potato chips, granola bars, Gatorade, and more!

Race Recap By Kris Engstrom:

I decided last night to run the Guernsey County Spring 10k this morning. Ended up getting 2nd overall in the 10k with a time of 52:17. This is a well run event with lots of food. The trail is in great shape with shade on most of it. Look forward to running it again next year.
