It is time for yet another race update for Ashley and Brian. As most of you know both are racing in the Second Empire Grand Prix Series and doing very well. This past weekend the two raced in the Free to Breathe 5k in Raleigh. This is the 5th race
Ashley had yet another PR in him this weekend running a 17:28 which would have won most Rocky Mount races, but was good for a 10th overall in Raleigh. Brian managed an equally impressive 18:23 earning him a 16th place finish. Both men won their age groups.
Ashley still sits atop the leader board with 4,271 points. Brian is in second place with 4,056 points. Ashley and Brian have both run all of the series races so far, so these standings will change as runners are allowed to drop their 2 slowest times or no shows for the series. As of now RMEC is proudly holding down the top two spots. Even once the races start to get dropped, both still are in contention. If you exclude any runner who has already missed three races, and look at the average points per race, this puts Ashley in 6th overall and Brian 9th.
Ashley and Brian may not be out on the marathon circuit right now, but these two have put in some serious training to produce the results you are seeing. Make no mistake. . . this is some seriously impressive work.
Very impressive. Fast, fast, fast or should I say pain, pain, pain.
