Several Creek Road Runners enjoyed success over the past couple weekends of racing.
On Sunday, October 30, at Caffé Gelato’s Waffle Cone Ten Miler on Creek Road, five runners took age group awards. CRR Bruce Weber finished 9th overall among the 344 participants and placed 1st in his age group (55-59) with a 1:05:59 (that’s 6:06 per mile!). Finishing 15th overall, CRR Bill Rose placed 2nd in the 55-59s in 1:09:06. Three others captured age-group 3rd place finishes: CRR Dan Weile (40-44) in 1:13:34, CRR David Coker (45-49) in 1:17:01, and CRR Bob Opila (60-64) in 1:38:24.
At the Newark Country Club on Saturday, November 5, CRR Andrew Weber won the Rock & Roll 5K outright in a nasty fast 17:43. Three other CRRs notched age-group wins: CRR Dave Schultz (50-59) covered the course in 24:03,
CRR Becky George (50-59) ran a 25:20, and CRR Doug Repetti (60-69) turned in a 25:56. The husband-and-wife team of CRR Mary Braun (50-59) and CRR Rich Braun (50-59) took an age-group 2nd and 3rd, respectively, Rich finishing in 26:28 and Mary in 26:56.
