stricklandGoing near and far to race some of the most picturesque coastline in the U.S., CRR Rachel Strickland has been on the move this fall. Having participated earlier this fall with running buddies CRR Michelle Parent and CRR Kathy Corbitt in a half-marathon on Cape Cod, Strickland went left-coast recently, finishing the Big Sur Half Marathon along California’s Monterey Bay in 2 hours and 23 minutes. This eclipsed her Cape Cod half by five minutes, with which she was very happy.

In her own words, “[I] probably could have shaved 3-4 more minutes off if I didn’t stop to take so many photos along the stunningly gorgeous course!” Hey, at least she’s taking time to smell the flowers along the way.

CRR Christina Parsons flashes that smile of accomplishment after finishing her first marathon.

Three CRRs celebrated Delaware Day by braving the December 7th cold and completing the Rehoboth Beach Seashore Marathon; three others ran the half-marathon.

CRR Christina Parsons finished her first marathon in under four hours, clocking in at 3:55:32. This placed her 13th in her age group (45-49) and 280th overall, out of 806 finishers.

In the half-marathon, CRR Dan Simmons posted a 1:37:45 to win the 65-69 age group, coming in 75th overall out of 1184 finishers! CRR Theresa Kauffman finished 9th among the 50-54s and 256th overall with a 1:50:34. CRR Rachel Strickland finished in 2:31:45, plus she ran along with Parent to help her finish the marathon, despite some painful tendinitis. A good day’s work.
