Had a horrible race today. Had some technical difficulties. Ran in some flats that I hadn’t worn in awhile and last night had to put old shoestrings on from my trail shoes…Dumb b/c they were the rope kind, so when I got half mile into the race both shoes came untied. Two guys passed me, so had to sprint back to catch them. Then about a quarter mile later, one of my shoes came undone again. Out of breath by that time I retied it and just couldn’t catch back up to the leader. Caught the second guy at the end but wasn’t very happy. Oh well, still early in the season, probably shouldn’t be racing now anyway. Going to focus on my long runs the next few weekends. Hope everyone is doing well.

Official results to come, but my watch had an 18:04. (I’m pretty sure I ran faster in the second 5k of the 10k last weekend)

Here’s the official results:

Got to give props to my wife (she just gave birth just under 4 months ago!) who was 4th overall and 1st for the women.:

Old Town, Fort Collins 5/4/2008
Looks like the fellas were running together for the first half. Richard said everything felt smooth until about 16 when he felt a burning in his leg, which was diagnosed at the end of the race by some doctors as a nerve irritation. Nothing that will cause in damage over the next few months.

Very nicely done, guys. A first for Krebs in his age division and a silver for Dime in his, not to mention 11th & 13th overall respectively.

Not to be outdone, Hans finished the 10k earlier that morning. And as the results show, Hans is in very poor shape. I don’t think that the “oh, I’m in horrible shape” line is very believable anymore, Hans

Very nice run. Especially since you are just beginning your training for HTC and you are so out of shape. Notice that Hans not only took 3rd in his age group, he took 3rd overall.

Just great stuff and we are still over 3 and a half months out.

Mark also ran the race and posted a respectable time after running 20 miles the day before. Way to go Mark!

Gary ran in the race as well. (Sorry I missed you in the original post. Great Job!)

Couldn’t find the results but it has been reported that an HTC member ran a 17:07. That man being Krebs. Not only is he in 2:48 marathon shape he can bust out 5:31 for 5k. That is a great indicator of things to come for August.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know that I have updated the site and have added some links under Resources including a pace calculator, pace charts, event schedule, and my training schedule for HTC/Georgetown Idaho Springs Half Marathon. I thought you might find these useful/interesting. How time is flying, only 17 weeks to go!

Finally the results and Krebs does it once again:

15. Steve Krebs M45 2:48:15 6:25

So he took 15th overall 2nd in Masters and 7th in the Professional/Elite races. This man can pump out 2:48s in his sleep. And I bet you he got up early on Sunday and ran an easy 10 miler through some state park.

Very nice run Steve.

Altitude Adjusted has recruited a new member from the “Team Danielson” sect of the group. We are happy to anounce that Mark Dillard has joined the team. Mark comes to us per Richard’s recommendation. He’s another tough triathlete who’s going to get us closer to that sub-20 hour time at Hood To Coast this year!
