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!!!

PaceMaker 5K/10K Results

Today’s Pacemaker 5k & 10K was kicked off with a Kids Fun Run. The kids literally “took off” down the Airlie Airfield. The young ones were taking-off in all directions and with great big smiles on their faces. They ran the length of the runway, turned around and came back. The kids returned just in time to see their fathers take-off as a part of their own Father’s Day celebration.
The 5K & 10K kicked off simultaneously shortly after 8:10a.m. The start line of the race was right at the end of the runway at the Airlie Airfield. This is a challenging road course meandering thru the undulating roads and pastoral setting of Fauquier County’s rural community with picturesque mountain views. The top three male 5K finishers were Dennis Billings, Thomas Maloney, and Mike Priem. The top female 5k finishers were Maureen Miller, Kimberly Olney, and Margaret Downey. The top three male 10K finishers were Duane Williamson, Bronson Armstrong, and David Pinnick. The top female 10K finishers were Anna Fisher, Lisa Totten, and Karen Young.
It was great to come out and be part of a great cause!!! Rob Marino and his crew put on a great event for the Fauquier Free Clinic, http://www.fauquierfreeclinic.org/
