Summer comes fast when it arrives. Saturday started cool and refreshing but by the time we finished, shirts were off and some of us were wishing for sunscreen. We ran the 4.2 mile down Hemlock up Ranney course. Winners this week were Kevin Ortega in 25:09 and Theresa Krebs in 28:22.

Some of the youngsters boldly announced that they would be "going out at a 6:30 pace," unlike some of the fogeys in the field who go out at 6:30 for the Sunset Special. (Yes, you Paul.) Back to the shirtlessness and this blind item: "As soon as I saw you take your shirt off, I knew it was my chance to take advantage of you." Hot? You know it. For real, I can't make this stuff up. Dan arrived late, perhaps strategically steering down Rocky Mountain.

Fun to see Lynnie and Al who came by to say hi and enjoy breakfast. But, like the rest of us, they were wondering where are Cindy and Nora?

Thanks to Bob for setting up our race course and our finish line fraulein Amanda who was back to hand out popsicle sticks. She has amazing shoes.

Congratulations to Chris who ran the Mt. Washington road race and LeeAnne who ran the Mt. Greylock trail half marathon. Nice job!

Next week, we'll run the 6.4 mile Minor Bridge course. Historically, the best water stop in the world has been on this race course. See if its there next Saturday!
