WOW! What a race. Kyle Skaggs had an amazing performance with a new course record of 23:23. Instead of age groups maybe we go with a “super” human class for guys like that. Great run Kyle. Our very own Scott Jaime finished 2nd in 29:50 going sub 30. The battle for 2nd was interesting to follow. Runners [...]
