Set
a new PR? Complete your first marathon
or endurance race? Let the BTC know
about it!
This new feature of The Vulcan Runner is intended to
acknowledge the accomplishments of the people who make our club so awesome -- you, our members. So please congratulate
the following members on their Feets of Strength.
Vicky Brakhage, from Chelsea, completed
her 10th half marathon in the St. Jude Half Marathon in Minden,
LA. She also set a new personal record
by four minutes! Congratulations,
Vicky!
Despite
a 30 minute weather delay, Robert Harris
of Leeds recently set a new personal record at the Rocketman Olympic
Triathlon held in Huntsville on August 23.
His overall time of 2:45:30 was good for 11/18 in his age group and
117/202 overall. Congratulations,
Robert!
