Results from the April Catch Me If You Can. It was a rough night for some of us and a small crew, but we saw great improvement from Beni and continued excellence from Kevin.

Is anyone else skipping NYRR Club Night and heading to the flats this evening? Not that any of you regulars run as slowly as me, but I expect to be there about 6:45 for a warm-up lap.

A bit windy out there tonight, but there were some stellar performances. Chris, James, Matt, Rick, and Beni led the way with greatest percentage improvement over expected time. Matt turned in a blisteringly fast pace, running the third fasted time we've ever recorded for a Thursday night tempo (in some great company with Kyle Hall and Bobby Asher). And welcome to new member Luis Roa who joined us tonight. Nice work all around!

On what turned out to be a perfect night to run, there were some great performances. Matt had the best improvement followed by Beni. Way to go Vannies!

Sure.  Here's the file Catch Me - Nov 2011.xls

Comment by Kevin Shelton-Smith on November 18, 2011 at 12:50pm

Nov. Catch Me If You Can Results.

Very blustery conditions but worth the effort.  Slight glitch had the last 4 setting off late as we stopped watching the clock.  Best improvement came from Sara and then Jonathon.  Estimates were pretty close considering and Beni ran very consistently compared to Oct.

The next CMIYC is Dec 22nd, maybe the last before the snow!

Brilliant, thanks Kevin. That's the excuse I needed to visit that new Ridge Hill mall. There's an REI and Dick's Sporting Goods there I hear.

Comment by Kevin Shelton-Smith on October 31, 2011 at 4:10pm

I've got a Petzl Tikka Plus but I hear the Black Diamond is also good.

Comment by Liam Moroney on October 31, 2011 at 1:35pm

I'd like to start attending the Thursday Tempo Runs (I'm a recent addition to VCTC), and I'm guessing I'll need a headlamp for the darkness. Can anyone recommend a good one, or a good place to pick one up?
