LHH 10k Team Sign-Up

Posted on by

WRC’s John Hallett, aka “John the Younger” sez:

I just signed up for this race and created a team for WRC, just in case anyone wants to get a team together. It sounded like a few other people, including John the Elder, plan to run LHH. If we can put a team together, we should be able to dominate the “community/open” team competition if it looks anything like last year.

The team registration for this Grand Prix race closes on Wednesday, June 4.

Joining a team is pretty easy. When you register, the site clearly gives you the option to join an existing team. Then you select the team from a drop-down menu or search for it by name (team name: Washington Running Club).

So be like the Johns: wear you club singlet, have a heart, and race with your club!

Rachel is now tied for 16th fastest WRC woman marathoner ever, and will be added to our list of Top Club Marathoners.

And on Saturday, Paul Karlsen won the SSC Wounded Warrior Run 10K in Rockville, MD. Results. Photos.

Update: Vice President Carla Freyvogel ran the Nike Women’s Half Marathon in Washington, DC, with her daughter, Grace Eginton (of the South Brooklyn Running Club). And Liz Lambert brought her own daughter, Evelyn Hamblet, to her first of many post-SDR meetups!
