Chips Fly at Way Too Cool 50K

It was a beautiful Saturday in Cool and the Chips came out in droves to run in the Way Too Cool 50K. Trail conditions and weather were superb for fast times and a world class field did not disappoint. At the end of the day, there were 28 runners finishing under 4-hours! A typical year might see ten.

Continuing with his "top Chip" streak was Ed Randalph, running a blazing 3:52 in his trail 50K debut. Erik Skaden was next in a solid 4:00. Mark Murray and John Blue each turned in course personal bests at 4:05 and 4:17 respectively. A quick scan of the results shows: Andrew Schooley (4:30), John Nichols (5:06), Ernest Takahashi (5:24), Jamie Frink (5:36), Miles Burnett (5:54), Jose Rodarte (6:12), Dennis Zilaff (6:32), Diane Vlach (6:57), Herb Tanimoto (6:58), Becky Johnson-Sabin (7:13) and Gloria Takagishi (8:13).

I know there were some other Chips out there I missed here. I apologize if that was you.

Be sure your membership is up to date! It keeps the club afloat and helps us find you in the race results. It also qualifies you for the Run Sac Racing Series. (I send a roster before each race in the series.)
