The temps were around freezing on a sunny day, but 110 runners still showed up for the February Nielson Challenge. This included lots of the younger folks, which we love to see. Of course, we also love to see the old farts as well. This month's winner was Derek Gorthy, who was 3:18 under his handicap. It's obvious that Derek has been putting in some good training. Great job, Derek! Volunteers Al Grimme Phil Foster Julie Foster Pat Lockhart Bill Gallegos Dave Sorenson Bob Royse EON Studios (shirt donation)
