Wired To Run 5K

62 runners took to the trails near the Old Dominion Baptist church in Gainesville, VA for the 1st Annual Moms for Safe Wireless “Wired to Run 5K”. Moms for Safe Wireless is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization that educates people about wireless products and the reported health effects of wireless technology.

Bobby G motivated the crowd with some rocking tunes, while Ron Stringfellow from Fitness Together got the runners limber and warmed up for the run. The weather heated up quickly with a nice breeze in the air, which may have been at Rory Bryan’s back as he was first overall running a pace of just under 7 minutes per mile for a time of 21:38. Tammy Tribett was hot on his heels to lead the women’s race and grab the second overall finish in a time of 22:45.

It was great to see everyone enjoying one of Prince William County’s best kept secrets in the Broad Run stream trail system. Many said they may never go back to running on roads again.

CrossFit Woodbridge 5K

29 MAY 2010: Athletic Equation had the distinct opportunity to team up with CrossFit Woodbridge to professionally time and manage their Work-Out of the Day (WOD). We started the morning with a short talk on running, the benefits it brings to the CrossFit Work-Out ethos, importance of integrating running into an overall fitness plan, and the importance of finding the best pair running shoes that work for you. We thank Dan for this opportunity and look forward too many more to come.

A special congratulations goes to Julie Inge. Julie completed her 1st 5K and to date this is furthest distance she has ever run! CONGRATULATIONS JULIE!!!

BRAEMAR RACE HITS 500 RUNNERS

22 MAY 2010: Over 500 runners hit the pavement this morning in the 7th running of the Braemar 5K and 1 Mile Run. This run was started 7 years ago with proceeds of the event going towards the Cedar Point Elementary. The 1 Mile Fun Run started at 8:00am with a top finishing time of 7 mins and 03 seconds for kids 12 and Under. The event is entirely managed by the Cedar Point PTA. The PTA has worked many long hours, coordinating all facets of the event from road safety to volunteer support, to pre- and race day registration. The objective is to promote health and wellness amongst the young kiddos. Great job to the PTA, the kids, and ALL the runners who took part in the runs today!

The results for the 1 mile fun run can be found at: www.athletic-equation.com/2010_Braemar_1M_OverallResults.pdf

The overall winner for the Braemar 5K was Hugh Toland in a scortching time of 17:11. The overall female winner was Meghan Blackstone in a great time of 20:04.
