Race Recap By George McFall:
Freedom isn’t free. Today, we remember the heroes who gave everything for ours. 🇺🇸
This morning, I laced up my race shoes and toed the start line of the 33rd Tallmadge Memorial 5K in Tallmadge, OH. This was my first time doing this race. Packet pickup was easy, and the start line was a short walk from the packet pickup location. The course was well-marked and offered a couple of doable up hills around the 1.3 and 2.5 mile marks. It was great seeing people in the neighborhoods we ran through cheering for the runners. This was a super fun race; I highly recommend it.
I went into the race thinking a sub-22 minute time would be good. Surprisingly, I ran faster than that. My finishing time was 20:35 which is my third-fastest 5K time (20:06 and 20:11), and I placed first in my age group. I just did a marathon 4 weeks ago so it was great to see how well my legs responded to the faster pace.
Post race: overall and age group awards, water, bananas and other snacks were available.
Race Recap By Veronica Neubert:
Nice weather for a run this morning! I love running with friends #ohioteamer (5th female overall and first in my age group)
Race Recap By Roy Miller:
First time running the Tallmadge 5k. Was really not feeling well the morning leading up to the race and didn’t sleep well the night before, so had no expectations. Was hoping to be able to get through the race and if I could just stay below 9:00 pace I would call it a win. I started off well and it helped to have so many Team ER members on the course. First mile was able to turn a 7:51. I thought maybe I had a bit more in my tank. Was able to maintain my pace throughout the race and was able to average 7:49. Was really happy with the race and even though the course is not “flat” I will try to run this again. The cherry on top is that I got 2nd in my AG and got to share the awards with 2 other Team ER members George Mc Fly and Mike Williams.
Race Recap By Steve Zenar:
I had a great time running the Tallmadge Memorial Day 5K this morning in my hometown. As usual the race was well organized and full of Team ER volunteers and runners. I had a solid run; although, ran out of gas in mile 3. Thankful that my ankle is beginning to feel better and that I am getting back into the groove again. I was able to run a 7:53/mile pace overall, placing 2nd in my age group.
Wishing everyone a Safe, Happy, and Healthy Memorial Day!
Race Recap By Felicia Neal:
Today I ran Tallmadge Memorial 5K with many of my Team ER friends. Today’s race was very well organized, well marked and had wonderful volunteers! My loving husband came to cheer us on. I got 2nd in my age group which was such a wonderful surprise. I am so thankful for being apart of this amazing team! Thank you for the fellowship and miles.
Race Recap By Laura Fairfax:
I placed 1st in my age group in this years Memorial Day 5k. This season of life adds perspective to being thankful for everyday things. Love sharing the podium again with my running bestie @kelskline who placed 3rd.
Race Recap By Terri Bednar:
I ran Tallmadge Memorial 5k today. it was a last minute decision but I was still able to sign up online. Lots of my fellow Team ER peeps were there and it was a lot of fun! The course changed this year and that last hill was a challenge but it was a lot of fun! I even placed 1st in my AG! Great race, well organized, easy parking and added bonus: super close to my house! I will do this race again!
Race Recap By Mike Williams:
It was a great morning to run with some Team ER friends.
Race Recap By Lisa Keane:
I love this family friendly community race honoring those who have served our great country!
Established & organized race on a well marked (not flat) course w/ police presence for safety.
Nice swag & after party w/ music & snacks during awards.
Best part is the huge Team ER turn out for this one! I love catching up with all of my
teammates!
I was not fully recovered from running the mud fest on Saturday but surprised myself placing 1st in my age group!
Congratulations to all of our Team ER athletes! You rock!
Race Recap By Scott Orlando:
I had a great time this morning volunteering to help with race registration and other duties at the Tallmadge Memorial Day 5K.
It was a great showing for Team ER with 17 members competing and volunteering. Many of which made the podium winning division awards.
Congratulations to all of the finishers and thank you to Josh Ritchie, Mickey Rzymek, Ritchies Sporting Goods, North Coast Multisports, Summit Athletic Running Club, and all of the volunteers for putting on another great race!
