These results are a bit behind, but I was waiting for them to be posted online. As most of you know the RMEC took a small army to the Hinson Lake 24 hour run two weekends ago. This unique ultra allows runners to loop Hinson Lake for up to 24 hours. The event is measured based on your distance, not by time.
Most RMECers set a new personal best for the miles they logged. Here are the results:
- 41.04 - Elizabeth Fuson
- 34.96 - Amber Shingleton
- 33.44 - Jon Shingleton
- 31.92 - Arthur Bennett
- 30.40 - Eric Ghiloni
- 27.36 - Margaret Bentley
- 27.36 - Frank Lilley
- 18.24 - Alane Floyd
- 18.24 - Brandie Ghiloni
Congrats everyone on pushing beyond your limits. Big thanks to Frank for all of the encouragement to everyone involved. Here is
Frank's race report from the event.
I've said it several times now.... but I LOVED this event!
ReplyDeleteMy only regret is not staying the whole 24 hours. We left after 12 hours, with the temptation of a hot shower and comfy bed. LOL!
Next year... I'M ALL IN!
Echoing Amber on this one. All in next year...now we know what to expect! Think we should make this one the yearly RMEC event! Frank Lilley, you are awesome for talking us into this...and you were right! Every one of us loved it!

Congrats to everyone for their achievements last weekend. I hope we take at least 20 people next year. It was the best event that I've ever been to. Very well put together, tons of food, massage, and best of all was the instant friendships that I made with other runners. Hinson Lake Ultra is like a family reunion...and I feel like I got adopted into the Ultra family! :-)Thanks again Frank!!
