2025 Club Results

Golden Ultra, BC, September 12-14,2025

Ara Steininger and Joanne Noll excelled at the Golden ultra stage race. Over three days, runners test themselves on the “Blood/Climb”; the “Sweat and Conquer”, and the “Tears and Cruise”. There are two categories for the event: the Half Pint and the Full Pint. In the Half Pint, runners climb 710 m over 2.9 km on Day 1; run 29 km and ascend 750 m on Day 2; and on Day 3, they run 11.1 km and climb 356 m. The Full Pint is brutal: 1063 m of climb in 4.6 km; 58 km and 2322 m; and 15.2 km and 463 m. Both events have exposed ridgelines in high alpine regions.

Ara finished the Full Pint in 35th place in the Open Women’s division in an aggregate time of 15:23:32. Her best showing was on the final day with a 29th place. Joanne placed 10th in the Women’s 50+ division in the Half Pint in 6:41:35. Her best showing of 9th place  was on the long second day.

Congrats, runners!

Prairie Nightmare Backyard Run, Echo Lake, August 16-17,2025

Congrats to the runners in the Prairie Nightmare backyard run at Echo Lake. A backyard race is one where runners complete a loop of 6.7 km every hour on the hour. If you finish in 35 minutes, you get to rest and recover for 25 minutes . If you finish in 57 minutes , you only have 3 minutes to eat, go to the bathroom, etc. Runners keep going until they have to drop out, and the race continues until there is only one runner left - the last man or woman standing.

The 2025 Last Man Standing is Peter Pazerniuk of Winnipeg with 28 laps (187.6k). The assist was Garrett Springer of Regina who completed 27 laps, and started but didn’t finish the 28th lap. Congratulations to Kirsten Kotylak, our last woman standing, who was followed closely by Stephanie Braithwaite, both of Fort Qu'Appelle. Both women achieved 9 laps, or 60.3 km. Here are the results: Runners who ran their personal longest distance are marked with bold font.  Some of these performances just have to be highlighted: Garrett Springer’s longest previous distance was 50k - he upped that to an incredible 180.9 km. Then there was Sam Kosolofski, who ran 60.3 km, after being shot, told he’d never walk again, and getting a hip replacement. Three other stars were Jaimie Kolenich, who just about tripled her previous longest distance , and Anne Klassen and Andi Grace, who more than doubled their longest distances.

Congrats to the brave runners who conquered the Canadian Death Race, in Grande Cache, AB.

The weekend also includes the Near Death Marathon - 41.3 km and 1,800 m of elevation change. Dominic Ritgen ran in 6:25:24, finishing 21st in the Men’s; and Melissa Rogers ran 8:52:43 for 77th in the Women’s.

Reesor 50 and Mountain Marathon Results, Cypress Hills, May 17, 2025

Congrats to the runners who survived the inaugural Reesor 50 in Cypress Hills interprovincial park. The 50 miler (83 km) climbs a total of 2300 m, while the Mountain Marathon climbs 1250 m. Both events include single track trail and gravel road, and incredible views of the Cypress Hills scenery. Both distances start from the historic Reesor ranch. Yesterday was rainy, hailing, and with mud packed roads, adding to the challenge that the runners faced!

Extra congratulations to Abby Miller, the winner of the Women’s Reesor 50! Special mention to Jamie Tait, who rolled her ankle mid race but still managed to run 41 km!

Here are the results of the Marathon Matters members, and any Regina runners we know about - please comment if we missed any Regina runners.

Istrski Luka Koper Marathon, Ankaran, Slovenia, April 13,  2025

Congrats to Gay Renouf and Sandy MacDonald who travelled to the Istrski marathon in Slovenia. The race travels between four towns and alternates its start/finish town each year - this year  it started in  very small Ankaran. The course featured rolling hills, passing through industrial areas, large stone gravel, but also had kilometres on beautiful bike paths following the ocean coastline. Gay finished the marathon in 4:38:29, good for second in Women’s I division, and Sandy finished in 2:41:20, also in second place in Women’s J division. This was Gay’s 200th lifetime marathon. Sandy was our profiled athlete just a couple of days ago - check it out in the Get  to Know our Runners  section.

Baker to Vegas Relay, CA and NV, April 6, 2025

Congrats to Abbey Schmidt who ran in the RCMP team in the Baker to Vegas relay on April 6. 243 law enforcement teams from around the world race 120 miles through the desert and mountains from Baker, California to Las Vegas, Nevada. Abbey’s team finished in 20 hours and 45 minutes. Abbey’s stage was leg 14, an uphill grind of 17.2 km that she finished in 1:31. Congratulations, rock star!

Marrakech Marathon, Morocco

Congrats to mother goose herself on marathon #199, sounded like an adventure to say the least. Also to Milos on another strong marathon at 83!

---

"Things looked ominous at the start with 3 portapotties to serve 1500 marathoners and 7300 halfers. The course was nice, wide boulevards, accurately marked. But motorcycles and scooters kept zipping in and out across the runners. Not race vehicles - I mean a thousand motorbikes at least. It was the most air- polluted race I’ve ever been in.

I raced hard to the finish - 4:27:12 and expected to have a medal draped around my neck. Instead I stood in a crowd with hundreds of other finishers (including quite a few who did not look like they ran…)after 20 minutes, the yelling started. Chaos! All the yelling was in Arabic but it seems non-runners stole the medals.

But then…an Irish angel gave me a medal (a policeman gave her an extra one?)

Milos finished in 5:44:11 and although he’s 83!!, he was 9th in the M70+. Apparently I finished third in the under 9 girls- maybe they can sort that out. I think I was 7th in W60.

In case you’re wondering, the Marrakech marathon does not get my recommendation."
