Marathon des Sables, Morocco

The Marathon des Sables is nicknamed the "toughest footrace on earth", and our own MM member Stacey Shand is running it!  Stacey herself has called it the hardest event she's ever done.  The race attracts over 1000 international runners to run 243 km in the Sahara desert in a 6 day stage race format.  Competitors find their own routes across the sand dunes; withstand temperatures up to 49 degrees, and must carry their own food and water, clothes, sleeping bag, and medical kit.  Stacey's results are outstanding.

Stage 1, 25 km, 6:09:48, 526th position/871 finishers

Stage 2, 34 km, 7:07:38, aggregate position 516th

Stage 3, 38 km, 5:30:56, aggregate position 473rd

Stage 4, 82 km, 15:32:49, aggregate position 361st

Stage 5, 42 km, 6:27:08

Stage 6, 22 km, 2:41:39, aggregate position 365th, 

Stacey finished this international race as the 37th WOMAN!

Sinister 7, Crowsnest Pass

Wow, the Regina flatlanders did well at this particular mountain race!  The 148 km race is normally done as a relay of 7 runners, but all three Regina soloists survived the brutal heat and tough course to become "sinners".  The course gains 5,320 m of elevation and loses 5,350 m, and the 32 degree temperatures were the hottest in the race's history.

Rick Minett was the 19th male soloist in 24:34:48; Alan Barry was the 21st in 25:32:29 and Stacey Shand was the 7th woman in 26:09:24.  Only 30% of the soloists finished.

Our Regina team did well too.  The Fringe Monkeys were the 67th mixed team in 20:32:41. Jim Wonnek ran stages 1 and 2, Simon Kostic stage 3, Bill Brown stage 4, Blair Anderson stages 5 and 6, and Sacha Lingenfelter stage 7.

JFK 50 Miler, Boonsboro, Maryland

The JFK runs through Boonsboro and onto the Appalachian trail; through some challenging rocks until 15.5 miles, then about 26 miles on a flat dirt path by the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, and finally 8.5 miles on a rolling road into Williamsport.  Great variety, outstanding history (50 years) and the biggest 50 mile race on the continent!  The MM results were:

Conor Renouf, 7th M20-29, 7:34:36

Gay Renouf, 1st W50-59, 9:33:53

Jennifer Ruland, 25th W30-39, 9:37:59

Jennifer had a mishap at the end of the Appalachian trail, spraining her ankle, and still finished the race, and finished very well!

Across the Years 24 Hour Run

Kathryn Rachar bettered her previous 24 hour run mark, at the Across the Years in Phoenix, AZ.  Runners repeat a 1.05-mile, mostly gravel track, until they're exhausted, freezing (in Kathryn's case), or their brains resemble hamsters' brains.  She covered 106 km, which put her in 19th spot for the women.  Congrats, Kathryn!
