And now for the "News" . . .
Jason Flogel won the 22nd Heritage Trail Run 10K (Dubuque, May 11) in 32:06.
Kristy Harken won the RUNorwalk 8K (Norwalk, May 11) in 30:52.
Nate Hopp won the Lace Up 4 Learning 10K (Cedar Rapids, May 11) in 33:47
Updates (really corrections) - Fitness Sports has 800 races listed on their website not 400 as reported, geez that's a lot!  Ellen Ries was 4th in the HyVee 6K not 5th as reported.  Ellen is a dietitian, employed at the West Des Moines HyVee.  Robyn won her 10th wooden shoe (almost consecutive) not 11th as reported.  She was injured last year and watched as Casey Owens won the coveted shoe (a wearable trophy, not great for running).
