1st LaCrosse Fitness Festival Marathon and Half-Marathon

[nancy]

Jim and I had the opportunity to run the new St. Claire Mission Half Marathon as part of the first La Crosse Fitness Festival May 2-3. The new course took us over the Cass Stree Bridge and through south La Crosse. Jim took off with Don Mayer who went the whole marathon distance and I ran with Cathy Fangman for the half. It was a beautiful day, a well-run event and a good time. Although neither Jim nor I pulled in a stellar performance, we would definitely do it again. Cathy had a great race as she ran ahead of me around 5.5 and Don finished his second marathon in 4 hours.
