Athlete Accomplishments: May 2019

May wraps up spring race season – and for the runners I coach, it was a strong conclusion to spring racing. 

Alexa raced a 6-min half marathon PR at the Snohomish Women’s Run!

Jennifer ran a mentally strong half marathon in tough conditions at the Long Island Half!

Aimee ran the Snohomish Women’s Run half marathon as part of a long run!

Lindsey placed 8th woman overall at a 25K urban trail race in Luxembourg!

Pete raced a strong marathon at close to his PR time at the Shipyard Marathon!

Melissa raced a strong, strategic half on a hilly course at the Mother’s Day Half!

Karla J achieved her goal of breaking 1:50 at the Capitola Half Marathon!

Mark won his age group and placed 9th overall at the hilly Run to the Port 15K!

Mariah set a PR at both the Colfax 5K and Colfax Urban 10 Miler!

Stephanie raced a PR in the Brussels 20K!

Marlene ran a 5 mile race and a 5K!

David raced a PR in high winds at the Edinburgh Marathon!

Jonathan raced the Mystic half marathon!

Kimberly ran in the Keys 100-mile relay!

Jessica raced her fastest post-injury half at Bayshore Half Marathon!

Ashley raced her first half marathon at the Edinburgh Half and completed without any walk breaks!

Many runners dedicated their May training recovery from their April races. Recovery is just as important as training and racing, especially if your goal is long-term progress. Others are sharpening for June races, including 5Ks, 10Ks, and half marathons, or focusing on building a strong base for fall races. Congrats to everyone on a strong May!
