Was it the upbeat music or training with a jogging stroller? We are not sure of her secret, but Wendy Haney qualified for Boston 2008, maybe Boston 2007 if her birthday falls before April 16, 2007. Wendy completed PF Chang’s Rock N Roll Arizona Marathon in 3:45:23. Did you know? Boston qualifying times are as of the date of the Boston Marathon in which you are participating, and an extra 59 seconds may be added to each age group category. Congratulations Wendy!
Kim Williams also completed PF Chang’s Rock N’ Roll Arizona Marathon in 4:00:10 and Chuck Zahnow completed the Half Marathon in 1:45:30. Way to go all!
There may be something to the stroller thing. Speedsters Gale Fischer and Megan James both often train pushing a baby jogger. A study of this phenomena is being conducted by Beyond scientists!
It appears we may have several snowbirds in our midst! Peter Gower ran his first of many planned 2007 marathons by completing the Disney Marathon January 7 in 3:48. Peter completed 8 marathons in 2006; in between his business travel which takes him all over the globe! He passed on the “Goofy Challenge,” where runners have the opportunity to run the half marathon Saturday, and the full marathon on Sunday, earning the Donald & Mickey medals as well as a Goofy medal! Scott Taylor ran a trail marathon in Florida a couple of weeks ago, and managed to find a Bronco in the crowd. Pace Leader Carrie Hybels is also heading to Florida this week, and will be running a half marathon!
Peggy Zeeb was named 2006 40-49 Age Group Runner of the Year by Front Line Racing Team. Runners earn points by participating as a team member and scoring points for Front Line! Congratulations Peggy!
Speaking of Peggy Zeeb, Peggy has also volunteered to serve as Kalamazoo Area Runners Relay for Life Team Co-Captain, but we are seeking a second Co-Captain to work with her and split duties. The 2007 American Cancer Society Relay for Life will be held June 2 & 3 at the Kalamazoo Air Zoo. Do consider getting involved as Co-captain, or as a participant or site volunteer!
