After the Spartan we all headed back to VB and slept in our own beds and bright and early we made our way to OBX to support Thomas during his marathon! Dennis rode throughout the course on his bike to encourage Thomas and Crystle, Tallent, and I moved around on the course with our sweet motivating signs! :D I have only known Thomas a short time but he continues to amaze me. Thomas has everything going against him when it comes to running long races and despite all the odds he PR'd today! I have never met someone with such great spirit and he is an inspiration to all.
Thomas Hicks rans a 3:08 marathon at OBX and PR'd by over a minute. He wanted just under 3:00 but his body was just not having it. He held on and finished really strong, despite the pain.
Virginia Running Fest Half:
Micheal Leech 1:22 and the win (1:24 previous PR)
Michael Bevers runs 1:36 and makes top 20 (1:44 previous PR)
Freedom Half
Kristi Chiles rocks it with a 2:08 (2:35 previous PR 2 months ago)
Aaron Wells goes 1:27 (1:40 previous PR)
