Trail Master Leads Pack at Hyner Trail Run
A hardened team of Wanderers traveled deep into the heart of Pennsylvania
on April 19 to compete in the Hyner 25 K trail race. The
terrain was demanding to say the least. Here is the course elevation
profile
Wanderers refused to be intimidated. They simply laced
up their running shoes and attacked the course. The club performances
can only be described as superlative.
Bob Reynolds lived up to his reputation as Trail
Master by coming
in second (yes, you read that correctly) out of a field of about
600 in 3 hours and 35 seconds. Chris Verry ripped off a 10th place
finish in 3:21:25. Erik Johnson did great coming in 23rd in 3:38.
Other finishers were Susan "the Great One" Hurrey and
Maureen Mignona finishing in 144th in 4:49:17. Tammy
Leigh Dement finished in 182nd in 5 hours and two minutes. Brian
McKenna pulled
into the finish line in 5:33 good for 251st place and Dennis
Crowne was timed in 6:19:41.
Results are still not in for Polly Jansen and Anita
Zalewski.
