First Water


The First Water event was a bit cool and wet again this year but the crowd that showed up had a great time. In fact, the ground was not as muddy as expected but was actually spongy soft and fun to run on. We had some great competitors out there. On the men's side, Ludwig Hill pulled away from the rest of the field to post a time 20 minutes faster than the next fastest male competitor. The womens competition was tight, with Cristina Luis pushing to victory by less than one minute over Windy Marks. Congratulations to you all! And as always, many thanks to the volunteers without which events like this would not be possible.
