Race Recap By Felicia Neal:

Today was Running with my Gnomies 25K. The course was well marked but I still got lost and ended up finishing with 12.39 miles. I had them remove me from placing. After comparing mileage with other runners, I must have missed something but I did find Gnomes along the way! I will have to try again next year. Regardless it was a wonderful time with friends and team ER. I have signed up for 2 more of Race Brimstone’s races.

Race Recap By Lynett McClay:

Running with my Gnomies 50k 25k and 9ish miles. The race started out with a light rain and a little chilly but warmed up in the afternoon. This was a great race put on by Race Brimstone. The course consists of single track, some very technical areas, rocks, roots, MUD, and elevation and several small creek crossings. Aid stations were well manned with great volunteers and a variety of snacks for all race participants. Packet pick up was easy with race bibs and t-shirts in a bags with your name on it. Even though i struggled through this race this year I did better than I thought. Next year I will come back with a vengeance.

Race Recap By Kris Engstrom:

I ran Running with my Gnomies 9ish today. Great race. a little muddy and hilly. Glad to have Josh Keane and Lisa Keane pacing me. I ended up finishing 2nd in age and 7th overall out of 33 runners with a time of 2:15:38. Thanks to Race Brimstone for putting on this race. Nice to see so many Team ER runners at the race.

Race Recap By Lisa Keane:

Running With My Gnomies 2026
Top 5 races of the year!
Late spring in Ohio brings cooler running temps & all the mud a girl could ask for. Choose your distance for a beautiful race thru Camp Tuscazoar. Very technical & tons of elevation!
Find the hidden gnomes for a bonus engraved hat clip! Yes, please!
Overall and age group awards are hand made stuffed gnomes! I have been trying for years to win one of these little friends and was so excited to place 1st in my age group this year and take one home!
Congratulations Team ER! We showed up in numbers today!

Race Recap By Lori Fritz:

I ran to the Clock Tower and Back 5K  this morning at Coventry High School. Parking at the school, of course was ample and so very convenient! The town of Portage Lakes is so very pretty! Race was well organized, and I very much enjoyed the course!
I had a lot of fun watching the little ones run their race as well!
I had a little trouble getting warmed up and race ready, due to being in my garage for the last two days trying to sell things, so I was pleasantly surprised to be awarded second place in my age group!

Race Recap By Chris Kiehl:

Small local race supporting the cross country team. Good communication & organized race. Course was stroller friendly. Starting at the high school to the clocktower and back. Police on course for safety. Overall and age group awards awards.

Race Recap By Brittany Kiehl:

I completed the fun run with the boys. We had a great time! It is a well organized race. This race supports the Coventry Cross Country Team and the proceeds from this race will help send them to XC camp this summer and will buy them new shoes and spikes this fall.
I love the course – it has great views of Portage Lakes. It is dog and stroller friendly. They even have a fastest stroller and fastest dog category. The swag is great! You receive an awesome finisher’s medal and soft shirt with the clocktower.  There are plenty of post race snacks. Highly recommend this race! I look forward to it every year.

Such a fun weekend with run club! I ran the Thunder Bunny 50K (32 miles) which was my first trail race at that distance! 6th female overall! what an experience! Might do it again!

Race Recap By Christine Churpek:

Thunder Bunny weekend!
A crew of us headed to Athens, Ohio for the Thunder Bunny 25K & 50K this weekend and it turned into such a fun adventure. Some tackled the 25K, others took on the 50K, and Peter came to cheer for us!
One of my favorite parts was all of us walking through the streets together in our NWB Run Club hoodies.
Post-race highlights definitely included hanging out at Little Fish Brewing Company and Jackie O’s to refuel and celebrate!
So grateful for this community and all the adventures running brings.

Donut Dash For Summit WAB 5K

Akron, Ohio

Scott Orlando

Finish Time:  23:03

Overall Place:  11th Place / 270

Division Place:  1st Place / 9

Race Recap By Scott Orlando:

It was a chilly but fun morning at the Donut Dash For Summit WAB 5K. I was looking forward to a fast flat course and obviously the donuts at the finish line! I felt strong running and had negative splits for each of the 3 miles of the race. I finished 11th overall. 12th if you count the beautiful dog that beat me! I was a little surprised when I crossed the finish line with a time of 23:03. Based on my mile splits I expected a much faster finish time. After a little data swapping and conversion with other runners we concluded the slower finish times resulted from the course being long. Usually I focus on my finish time but for this race I’m focusing on my mile splits of 7:19 for mile 1, 7:17 for mile 2, and 7:12 for mile 3. Still not where I want to be yet but progress over my last two races so I am happy with that.

The initial results showed I placed 2nd in the 40-59 age division. I was about to leave and checked the results one last time and apparently there was a glitch and the new updated results showed me winning the 50-59 age division. I went back to the finish line and unfortunately missed the awards ceremony. The race director did present me with the age division award though.
The race was well organized. The course was closed with police blocking all cross streets. The course was mostly flat but there were a few areas of a little elevation change. Running on some of the brick roads wasn’t ideal but tolerable.

All participants received donut themed t-shirts, donut finisher medals, and some coupons and promotional items from sponsors. There were a lot of really nice gift baskets that were raffled off but sadly I didn’t win one. The donuts at the finish line were tasty and the real star of the race.

Congratulations to all of the finishers!  Thank you to all of the volunteers and race directors for putting on a great race!
