Race(s) Recap: July 11th-14th

Another week, another set of results from the NACHOs!

Thursday July 11th: RACE 5K #3, Cambridge MA

We had another group of NACHOs compete in the Thursday summer series races.  There are two options for racing the 5K distance; the co-ed race and the women's only race.  Serena raced with the ladies and finished on the podium; finishing 3rd in 22:47!  CONGRATS!  Also running in the women's race we had Gretchen, who finished 14th in 26:18!  Strong showing ladies! In the co-ed race, we had Adam finishing 4th (17:39), and Kevin 161st (29:56)!

Saturday July 13th: RI Aquatic Hall of Fame 1.2M Swim, Portsmouth RI

In the largest NACHO swim event EVER, we had FIVE NACHOs compete in smooth waters off of the coast of RI.  Sarah was the first NACHO out of the water in 32:27, a fantastic showing for her first NACHO event!  Coming in after her was Casey in 35:09, cruising after his warm up swim last weekend in the Narrow River.  A very happy birthday to Kim who finished 3rd in her division, finishing in 37:07!  Joe had another strong outing, finishing the Save the Bay warmup in 39 flat.  And rounding out the group was Brian in 40:03, saving his energy for next week's big event!
