Congratulations to Enrique and Wolf in the New York Marathon. Enrique finished in 3:22:31 (7.44 pace) and Wolf finished in 3:28:49 (7.59 pace), fantastic times guys!
It was a beautiful morning to run. 57 at the start. Only about 65 at the finish. Clear blue skies. I am so happy with my time and I am very grateful. I was blessed to be able to hold that pace today. I ran the first 10 miles with a 3.05 marathon pace group. I just hung on for dear life until the marathon and half marathon split at 10 miles. Thanks to all you. I couldn't do it without great training partners! See you out there.
Congratulations to Thomas for finishing the Lake Tahoe Marathon in a time of 4:12. He placed 62 out of 289 and placing 5 in his age group.
Congratulations to John M. and Dave for finishing the St. George Marathon. John's time was 3:27, but he chickened out on the flash mob before the race!
Owen ran in the Palos Verdes 5K, (during the marathon) on the coast cliffs near Long Beach. It was a drizzley rain day, and a hilly course. He came in at 19:22, 5th OA, and PR. Great time Owen!
Congratulations to all the Glendora Ridge Runners who participated in the SoCal DayBreakers sponsored taterthon. A 27 mile event with lots of elevation gain.

Thank you to the DayBreakers for putting on such a fabulous race.
Andrew finished 2nd overall in the inaugural Monrovia Fountain to the Falls race on Saturday in Monrovia. He had a time of 46:01! A few of us ran it on Thursday and it's a very tough 7 mile course. The first half is "all" up hill and much of it fairly steep.
Andrew 46:01 2nd O.A.!
Ed 59:08
Richard D. 1:11:29
We would have all come in 1st in our age group if they had recognized placement by age groups. It was a great day for a race. And we all enjoyed the Monrovia Fire Department's Pancake Breakfast after the race!
