FLRC Newsletter - December 2004
Series Recap and Thanks
 

I wanted to thank all of those who gave up their weekends to participate in the Upstate New York Cross Country Series this year. I'm sure we all had our good and bad days, but I hope that everyone enjoyed themselves for the most part. Please encourage your friends to join us for a few races next year in hopes of keeping the trend going. It was a lot of fun to see such large groups congregating at the T-Burg Shursave at dawn every other weekend.

The High Noon Men were awesome, as usual, and managed to place in team standings as well as earn individual awards. Great job, guys! I always enjoy those meets where we are able to cheer them on since they are always supporting our ladies at the finish line. Thanks for keeping us going out there and for all of your positive encouragement.

Our FLRC Ladies did quite well. In the Open Division, we placed third overall, with Becky Harmon holding on for seventh place. In the Master's Division, we grabbed second place, with Suzanne Myette holding second, Gill Sharp third, and Lorrie Tily missing fifth by only one point. Our Vet Ladies had first place all wrapped up with Zsophia Franck taking second and Shelly Marino fourth overall. All three divisions earned a handful of Upstate NY XC headbands for our efforts, and we will be passing them out to those ladies that were able to participate in the most races.

Several of us are hoping to meet in the Finger Lakes National Forest occasionally for some snowshoeing/skiing adventures when it snows, so watch for postings if you are interested. I think that many of you may be participating in the track meets this winter too.

Thank again for joining the FLRC XC team this fall.
