Angela Fleck.....welcome to the marathon club 🎉

Angela ran her 1st marathon at the warm Chicago Marathon in just over 5hrs.

After talking with her last night, I'm not sure who was partying more during the race...her or the spectators.

Congratulations Angela, I'm really happy and proud of you, and again welcome to the club!

Congratulations to everyone that ran yesterday.

See you on the roads!

A HUGE congratulations to our Mile To Marathon's Ryan Paulson on his "solo" 100 mile run that he designated the "Franklin- Ford 100"

Ryan started his run Saturday morning at 8:00am on the Lake street bridge and West River Road. And finished just after 9:00am this morning.

After his run I told him this might have been one of his best runs....not for his overall time, but basically doing it self supported and battling the demons between our ears when in the middle of the night with no other runners, no aid/checkpoints are saying it's ok to stop, he pushed on.

On behalf of Ryan, I want to say thank you to our MTM runners who came out throughout his run to support him.

It was also really cool that members of the
came out and put some miles in with him.

That's what I love about running , the
camaraderie we all share for the sport we love. It was great meeting and running with you.

Have a great rest of your Sunday and I'll...

See you on the roads...and trails!

Congratulations to Kahlen on her great race at today's GF XC Border Battle .

Kahlen was the 8th place finisher and improved on her time from last year by approximately :15 on what was more of a mud run vs XC race.

I had the honor and pleasure on working with Kahlen over the summer helping her prepare for this season. And she's off to a great start!

See you on the XC course!
