Heights Fun Run

Finish Strong Racing's Nora Wilson won first in her age group at the Heights Fun Run on Saturday, June 1.



Here's Nora's race report, "This race was for me, a fitness check since the Boston Marathon 6.5 weeks ago.  The course is flat and 'would be' fast, were it not for the heat and humidity!!!  Still, it's a well-organized, pretty, shaded route, out-and-back Heights Blvd.  The post-race festivities take place in Marmion Park, where awards are presented in a gazebo surrounded by trees, park benches and tents where runners can find bagels, breakfast tacos, iced coffee and other goodies.  There is also a kids 1K and kid-friendly activities that are fun to watch before awards and door prizes are announced.  This is not a time I'm proud of, but I did get the W55-59 AG win (barely!) in 23:59 (7:44 pace).  Hope this body gets used to the heat and humidity soon!"

Well done, Nora!
