It's been a little less than a week since the 2017 Lincoln Half and Full Marathons.  This race has been a huge partner with LRC-Racing since our inception and every the LRC women and men turn out in force to compete and show our support for the work and funding that the Lincoln Marathon puts into our team.  The 40th Anniversary of this year was a hot one both in terms of temperature AND competition (heyoooo!).  On a course that can be both fast and put in you in your place at the same time, the team showed some serious fitness after a really good spring of training.

Without getting into too much detail (see below for details) LRC was represented well in the top ten of virtually all races.  After the top ten, the LRC logo was all over the damn place.  Here are some of the major highlights:

In the women's half we were lead by Bridget Easeley (5th OA), Hayley Sutter (7th OA), Erica Doering (8th OA), Michelle Paxton (9th OA), and Frankie Petersen (just outside top ten in 11th).

In the men's half Johnny Rutford (6th OA) was the lone member in the top 10.  The bulk of the rest of the top 25 was LRC racing.

In the men's full marathon (holy cannoli that was hot) Michael Rathje powered to a 6th OA as well.  LRC alum Eric Noel was 4th in trying to defend his title from 2016.

In the women's full

The team now turns it attention to a bunch of summer racing at shorter distances. . .
