Race News
Jim"da Machine" Raymond performed magnificently in his 1st trail long run. At the Tecumseh Marathon outside Bloomington, IN he took 1st in his age group and 39th overall running an impressive 3:53. His exuberance did have one down fall as I passed him picking it up in the final 10K at the 21 mile marker for a 3:49 5th age and 29th overall.

To the club if you go with Jim to a race he does drive like his old age of 56 slow and cautious, however he runs with reckless abandoned.
