Team Norris Running: Year in Running 2020

2020 will be known for many things; for runners, it was the year without races. High stress, stay-at-home orders, Covid-19, and other circumstances disrupted the normal flow of training and racing. However, even the most tumultuous years have bright spots. The runners on Team Norris Running put forth their best effort in this hard year, through virtual races, time trials, personal accomplishments, overcoming unexpected injuries, and making the most of running during a pandemic.  I asked ...

Athlete Accomplishments: January 2020

For most runners, January is focused on base building or maintenance during winter. However, there are still plenty of races in January, especially for some Team Norris Running athletes! The new year started off strong with some overall and course PRs, strong early season races, and fun races.  Mariah ran a 5K PR of 33:32! Jennifer placed third in her age group in a 5K! Kimberly raced a 56 minute 10K in 20-30 mph winds and a 4-minute course PR at the Key West Half ...

Athlete Accomplishments: November 2019

November marks the end of fall racing season, and what an exciting month of racing it was!

Laura ran NYCM with a time of 4:00 (a course PR)!  Jessica ran a 1:19 at the Chicago Hot ...
