March 1st Results (7 miles & up)

Our split-shift running went well on both fronts today. At the Napa Valley Marathon, Russell PRed for second straight year in this race. He has improved by about a dozen minutes in the past year. Thanks to Sara for coming up early from Berkeley to help cheer and navigate. Back home, Tonya and Jean made sure our temporary move to Dorris Ranch ran smoothly.
