Race rpt – Iron Bridge 5k w/ Billy Mills
Nov 21, 2010
Many club members ventured out to the wilds of Route 30 East to run the Iron Bridge 5K at Lancaster Mennonite High School. A few age group award winners were Evan Sandt, Jeff Kirchner, Brit Kilbourne, and me - Sil.
The other part of the event was a talk by Billy Mills, 1964 Olympic Gold Medalist in the 10000 meters. He gave an inspirational talk on much more than running, and if you look in Sunday's Sports section, you'll see our own Dave Romano in a picture with Billy.

Yeah, I nice little race on the pretty grass, part trail LMH XC course. Who would ever know a race went on between the shopping outlets? Saw Donavon, Bob Long, Roxanne Quinne and those mentioned by Sil. Seeing Billy Mills was treat as famous-runner-events around here are infrequent at best.

I completed the Tough Mudder yesterday in Englishtown NJ. It really was the toughest race ever, and my body is riddled with bruises and scars. Still it's something everyone should try at least once in their lifetime.

Race rpt – Oley Valley 10M & 5k
Nov 9, 2010
A chilly Sunday morn in Oley valley brought together many a fine folk for their 10 miler and 5k. LRRC had a nice representation with Andy C, Dr. Lynn Marquez and Lititz Diana running the 10 miler, myself (the other other Smith!) running the 5k and Missy "pack mule" Baker there to cheer us on and take our outer layer of clothing immediately prior to the start. A good time was had by all despite the cold weather and windy conditions.
I kept the crew waiting in the cold longer than wanted to collect my first place age group award. Stormed past two peeps in the final quarter mile, outdueling the last guy (who was in my age group) in the final 50 meters to finish 5th overall in 19:09. Not bad for not running a 5k since the first fun race in the spring and being in marathon mode since!

Race rpt – Amish Country Half Marathon
Nov 8, 2010
I competed in this weekend's Amish Country Half Marathon in Bird-in-Hand and it was a great experience. A flat and fast course for most of the race helped me get a time and place I didn't expect: 11th place with a time of 1:23:12! After the race there was a lot of refreshments and music. And I want to say thank you to all the Amish folks I saw cheering me and the racers on, and they also let us use their streets. I look forward to doing it again next year!

Congratulations to Evan Sandt on winning the Trick or Trot 5K in New Holland. He won by so much that he was on his second celebratory cigarette by the time the next guy came in. An interesting note about that race - the women's winner was 8 years old.
My racing weekend took me to Hershey for the Halloween Hustle 5K on Saturday and to Wyomissing for the Fitzy's 5K on Sunday. Didn't see many familiar faces, and the ones I did see are all from Lebanon - Bob Long on Saturday and Mike Smith and Al Booth on Sunday. Al took third in the 70+ age group, a nice feat since he turned 91 on Saturday.

Yeah LRRC went 1-2 with Paul Davey taking 2nd overall. Age group winners were Travis Hess & Gary Bell. Nice day to race. - Evan Sandt
Race rpt – Covered Bridge Run
Oct 16, 2010
It was a beautiful day at the Covered Bridge race. Don't remember
once that I have done this race in the past 6 years that that wasn't the
case. Sort of the anti-Stoudt's. It was great to see Christian Taylor
manning one of the water stops. Jim Haun placed in his age group and
Doris O. got 3rd in ours, and my friend and coworker at the museum,
Kevin Witman, got 3rd in his. Saw lots of LRRCers there. Sil, Diane
G., Keri Cohen, Doris and her sister Kathy, Travis Hess, Missy B and Frank McCardell
and his twin (someone who crossed the finish line with him that was
dressed in the same outfit he was wearing). Sorry to anyone I have
missed, speak up if you are out there. So glad that this race has made
a comeback. Several of us missed it last year, and decided to run the
course on the third Sat. in October anyway. Only year the race wasn't
held, the weather was cold, rainy, and miserable.

had a last minute oppurtunity to do this race so off i went.
John was setting out for a long run, so i took Henry.
It was a small one,(38 souls), 5 of whom were in my age group. they all looked
much fitter that i did.
we were off to a start on the grass, then it became a windy, hilly challenge
thru upper leacock twp.
Much to my shock, i was 16th overall, and 2nd in my age group. henry placed 1st

Race rpt – Warrior Dash
Oct 13, 2010
A quick review of the results showed Marc Buckwalter and Tim Schuler in the top 50, and Swamp Feinauer won his age group. This event was extreme fun, and as hard as you make it. I do not think it was the stated 5 km though since the fastest time was 17:01 and even old-slow me "ran" 45:40. I'm guessing about 2 and 1/2 miles. But who cares? Fun day, work different muscle groups, meet new people. The obstacles were challenging but still fun. Some people were having fear-of-heights issues, and one girl near me at the lake almost drowned getting over the logs in the lake, but another guy and I helped her up and over. She was from Florida and thought it was cold. All totalled, a fun day. Would I do it again? Yea, I guess. I seem to be better at strength events, cause I sure can't run.

I went to York for a new 5-Miler at Apple Chevrolet along Route 30. Pretty tough course, with 2 significant hills. I did OK on the first, but the second one got me. Finished out of the money in 36:33, which is actually pretty good for me.
The best part of the race was that it started at 7:30. I was home by 9:15.
This week there's a nice 5K in Lititz - the Hartz Fall Blast. Flat course, some of it on a paved rail trail.
Did anyone do Hands On? Did they find all 13.1 miles for the course this year? Did they treat the 5K runners with respect?
The LRRC's Stoudt's 12K is coming to Adamstown on October 23. Be there, not elsewhere.

Race rpt – Hershey 1/2 Marathon
Oct 5, 2010
The course was great, I'm sure it was accurate because they had cones marking every 10th of a mile and clocks every mile! The course was rolling but no major hills. Plenty of water/sports drink stations with very friendly volunteers, and some music along the way. Police were helping at every intersections and bike crews monitored runners then a nice track finish. Packet pick up was very organized.
Perks: Entrance to Hershey park Saturday night, nice "kiss" finishers medal, tech shirt, earth friendly bag with some Hershey goodies, massages after the race, lots of recovery food and drink, and a tour through Chocolate World......all for $50.
The race filled up fast, being capped at 2,500.

Race rpt – Steamtown Marathon
Oct 11, 2010
Adam Smith, Andy Gingrich, Christine Geiselman, and Kyle Hummerston all successfully completed the 15th annual Steamtown Marathon this weekend. The chilly 30-some degrees start quickly gave way to sunny and pleasant running weather, making for a perfect day to run a marathon.
Many congratulations to Adam who ran an impressive 3:05 and will be joining Christine at Boston this April!! Christine, who qualified for Boston earlier in March at the National Marathon, ran her second marathon of the year and finished with a commendable time. Andy had a great run, finishing with his second-best marathon time!! And congratulations to Kyle who not only ran a strong race, but can now add a 26.2 sticker to his car! As usual, the LRRC was well represented!

Oct 11, 2010
Well, we certainly got muddy! This is definitely one of those "fun races" that you do just to experience it, although those who finished in under 20 minutes probably have a good career with the Navy Seals if they choose ;)
My total time was 27:57:25. 113/631 in my age group for Saturday, 771 out of several of thousand men, and 894th out of a total of 6044 participants. The obstacles were fun, this is nothing like the Tuff Mudder; it was a fast course (to me, anyway), meant to give you a challenge without killing you. It was a different way to run a 5K, and it broke the monotony on a standard 5K without killing experienced runners. Well-organized, well-run, and took me what felt forever to get all the mud off of me... my poor bathtub!
The organizers did collect all our ratty old/muddy sneakers, and will apparently get them washed and sent off to charity. That was a big hit, the pile kept growing as each heat finished. That was really nice to see.
I'm not sure it was worth the $75 to do it more than once (and then add $10 for parking, plus cost of souvenirs, food, and beer and activity tickets....if you're so motivated to buy all that stuff, you're easily dumping well over $100 bucks into this day) . I think you can only collect so many fuzzy black viking helmets and finisher medals before the novelty wears off. But if you thought about doing it and didn't, I would say it's worth it for fun, or if you can get a team together for next year, that makes it funner; I flew solo this year.

Saturday, I headed west to the Springettsbury 5K in York. It used some of the course that they use for the 15K in the winter series - the flattes part of the course. For late September, it was quite hot. I saw only one recognizable face, and he's not a club member.
In the coming weeks, we have a bunch of local opportunities. This week, it's the Hands-On House Half-Marathon and 5K. I hope that they'll have a 13.1 mile course this year, not the 12.6 that they had in 2009.
There's also a new 5-miler in York on Saturday. That's where I'll be:

hi everybody!
just got back from one of the most fun races I have ever done, the eagle hadventurish, at Camp Mack.
You could do a 5k, 5 or 9 mile race.
I did the 5 mile, along with Bob Long, Kaye Mede, and Donavon.
Aimee and Bob B did the 9 mile, Henry and Alan Mede the 5k.
What a hoot, a trail run split up by challenges, such as a maze, a half mile creek WALK, carry a cup of water up a hill without dropping, to name a few.
All was well for me till the dreaded bean bag toss, no small feat while tired!
That took at least 10 mins.
Henry Kaye Alan and Donovan placed first in their age groups, nos sure of Aimee and Bob as we had to leave

I headed east to Twin Valley High School in Morgantown for the Meelard Shuffle 5K, a cross-country race run on the high school course. It was a beautiful day, and the course isn't terribly hilly, although it isn't flat, either. I rumbled home in 25:16, which is even slower than I do for a road 5K. It was definitely fun to run something different, and cross-country is different from trails, as well as roads.
Bob Long, lover of cross-country races, where were you?
The real highlight of the day was the post-race spread, which included the best peaches I've ever had. By my count, I ate 14 of them, and I took a few home with me. I also stopped along Route 322 and bought the best honeydew I've ever had, so it was definitely a tasty day at the races.

Conewago Trail in Need of Repair!?

Conewago trail in need of repair
By P.J. REILLY, Staff Writer
http://articles.lancasteronline.com/local/4/280730
A series of nasty summer storms has left a section of Lancaster County's Conewago Recreation Trail in danger of collapse.
County commissioners at their weekly meeting Wednesday morning are expected to vote to bypass the county's normal protocol for hiring contractors.
Emergency authority would be granted to the facilities management department to hire a firm as quickly as possible to repair the damage before it gets worse.
"We have the potential to lose the trail, which would be a much more significant cost than trying to repair this," said Charlie Douts, director of facilities management. "This is an emergency and needs to be taken care of."
The Conewago Recreation Trail runs for five miles along the county's northern border in Mount Joy Township.
It parallels Conewago Creek, which separates Lancaster and Dauphin counties.
Last month, severe storms uprooted several trees that fell across the creek in the Aberdeen area between Mill and Old Hershey roads.
The trees restricted the natural flow of water and caused significant erosion of the stream bank on the Lancaster County side, according to John Ulaky, the county's grounds superintendent.
County work crews cut and removed the trees, but the washed-out bank near the Conewago trail remained.
Subsequent storms in August have washed out the bank even more, Ulaky said, creating a 12-foot-high cliff within two feet of the trail.
That area has been cordoned off with security fencing to keep hikers, bikers and horse riders away from it, Ulaky said.
"If a horse got near it, it could collapse because the surface has been undermined," he said.
Used by an estimated 60,000 people every year, the Conewago trail was renovated and resurfaced in 2007 at a cost of $530,000.
Douts said the damaged section can be repaired for about $20,000 by filling in the washed-out area with boulders and smaller rocks.
Ulaky said the plan is to create a slope stretching from the trail down to the stream.
He estimated it will take about 700 tons of rock to do the job.
Facilities management has been soliciting estimates from potential contractors and Douts said he hopes to hire one by the end of the week.
Ulaky expects work to begin next week and be finished within a month.
"We need to do something now," he said. "Somebody's going to get hurt."

While others waste away on vacation, we see it as an opportunity to put in more miles.

the quick take-Sunday nite, Elizabethtown PA at 6:30 PM, weather was clammy. 115 ran the 10K only option, this the 33rd year for the
race, with a start finish on the Masonic Home grounds. Overall winners - Daryl Brown & Emily Shertzer. Men's race had a great competitive
3some at the front with one of the Keystone elite runners, Mark Stallings & Daryl Brown-all highly ranked regional runners. Somewhere
along the course, Daryl prevailed by 18 seconds & the Keystone guy dropped out of contention. Known names: LRRCurr Greg Lavelle was an
age group winner as was a 70 years young Greg Kerek. Other names? no idea.
-always a great race & great that 10k road races are still here in this county, though in short supply (think Turkey Hill, CV's Buckskin
Breakout & cross the chester county border an inch or two for the Brave Race as the only 10k's)

Race rpt – SECA 5k
Aug 7, 2010
Sil, it's been fun. But since you've decided to boycott all the races that I run, I've found a new competitor. Or actually, they found me. And the scare me
a little...even more than your flourscence.
The high school girls cross country teams. I thought it was a freak occurrence. There was an "incident" at the Firecracker. I won't rehash it. And then
today. One of my favorite races of the year, the SECA 5K....love the Quarryville playground, love the 1/2 mile kids race BEFORE the 5K making for whiling
passengers in my buggy for the 5K, love swimming in the pool after for free, love hanging out with Chris McDougall and family.....
Ran the first somewhat uphill mile happily, feeling good, happy passengers. Talked with Donavan and Frank a bit. Hit the 2nd mile feeling great
and picked it up on the flat stretch and then even more on the downhill. And that's when I caught them. About 5 girls ages 13-15. The encircled
the buggy using team tactics, boxing me in, talking strategy. In my head I'm thinking, "why don't they want to be my friend? Surely I am inspira
tion to them....you can grow up, marry, have some kids, and still somewhat race competitively". Then reality of my mental state, hormones, emotions,
as a 15 year old girl come flooding back. No, they are not thinking nice things of me I know. I was in a better frame of mind than I was at
the Firecracker so I hung with them awhile before pushing forward, almost hitting one, laughing and saying I had a dirty diaper to change better move
it. No one else laughed. But I guess they were breathing a little hard to laugh. Up the final hill and the posse is on my heels. And that's when the
left side of my stroller cracks. Yes. I am racing so hard I broke a stroller. We begin the final 1/2 mile downhill, me with a stroller pulling so hard
to the right I am actually running diagonally to keep it somewhat straight. Them like a pack of wolves on my butt. Then I hear it. One of them stops to
puke. I was so proud. I never even got Sil to puke, but my new adversaries are vomiting before we even cross the finish. Victory is mine!
Believe it or not...here are the race results. The wolves are right behind me....http://www.runccrs.com/Results/SECA_5k_and_kids_run_2010(1).htm

Race rpt – Escarpment
July 27, 2010
Nice and cool start, got a little warm and very humid throughout the run and just started raining
when I finished. I would hardly say I smoked anyone or anything. The trail totally kicked my
bee-hind and my calves are still on fire. Ran the last 3/4 miles down boulders and over rocks like
a man possessed as I was being chased down by Bob from Rhode Island and was able to hold him off
until the finish. Completed the "run" in just under 4 hours, was 25th overall and was most certainly
the most difficult race I've ever done. Nice to hear that nobody from the club injured themselves
excessively! I'll be back next year with much more respect for the trail. Wish I could have sticked
around for awards and part 2... :-(
And btw, the trail on Blackhead Mtn. should be renamed the Blackhead climbing wall.

What a great time escarpment weekend was once again! Minus Peter and Charles,
but the show went on. The author(Ed) became a Foster child for the weekend.By
my account there were 10 Lrrc participents: Adam, Deb, Doris, Carli, Greg Foster
and his two sons Ian and John,Barb M., Tom H. and myself. Everyone finished alive,
safe and sound. Can't wait to here what the newbeis thought of the ordeal! I swear
the moutain plates are still shifting as the hills get higher and steeper every year,
not to mention rockier. Maybe, I am just getting older. Adam apparently smoked the
course and headed back to Lancaster, before the rest of us finished. Suprisingly the
weather was a bit cool at Lake so a quick swim and off to the most wonderful cookout.
Thanks to Greg for the fine grilling skills and all who stopped by and contributed
and took in the chow and refreshing beverages. There was also a brief Bra-hause visit
by 3 manly men the night before. Hats off to all who were there and represnted the great LRRC!!

We all finished, and Bonnie placed.

SUPPLEMENT (see below)
One more familiar face was Erin Magagna. Not sure if she is a member, but she has joined us on the Sunday morning trail run more than once. She placed 3rd overall!! After she finished her race, she came back out on the course and ran with me to make sure I didn't slow down the last mile of the run. Believe me, the thought crossed my heat-stricken mind more than once.
Great day. Fun time. Good race. Be back next year.

6/28/10
Large LRRC turnout at the Double Trouble over the weekend. Peter, Ed, Bergman, Aimee, a Barb-less Tom, and the young (oh, sorry, younger) crew of Beth, Annie, Christine, Kyle and Adam (me) were all in attendance. Warm, sunny, 90 degree day for 15/30k's but everyone survived. Bob and Aimee did the 15k and were no where to be found after the race by the 30k peeps. Good showing by peeps in the 30k as Christine took 6th female after 2 other people were DQ'd for cutting the course short (no age group award tho for the Geis), Kyle recieved a medal for 4th in the young pup age group (a surprise when it was announced, but he deserved it just for catching and passing Christine in the last mile), and Adam (me!) took home 8th overall and 2nd in age group (2nd to some 18yr old punk who signed up on race day... BLASPHEMY!!!) which makes 2 weekends in a row taking home some hardware which, in fact, are my first 2 age group awards EVER!
After the awards the youngins stayed around and opted to go for a swim in the lake rather than spend $7 for access to the overly crowded, bloody murder screaming child filled pool, undoubtedly full of uric acid and baby ruth's. All was fine and dandy for about an hour until the Park Ranger came by and kicked us out for some reason. Apparently they were afraid that we would tip over one of the 20 canoes on the lake with unsupervised 1st graders in them...

-Ran the r4l held at the RR Donnelly plant on Memorial Day, '10. Saw CarboBob Long, Mrs. Carbo Shirley, suddenly free of his nemesis albeit for day-Sil, Steffie the surefire women's winner, Jeff Kirchner, Missy Baker, Todd Poole and probably others. Weather was hot but shaded in th e 2nd part of the course, under the trees of Long's Park. The first part of the course? Well, it is what it was - running around a large blue printing plant bordered by train tracks, parking lots and truck trailers. After that? On to Long's Park for a counterclockwise loop around the perimeter of the park. I haven't been there since the dead of winter in the dead of nite, so it was kind of a nice change. Mike Yoder was there representing Pretzel City Sports, so the start and timing was on time accurate. 1st place went to Jeffrey Wainam in 15 something, followed by a 40 plusser Matt Sandercock (former Red Rose winner I think), then Tim Su, then me. Sil Missy knabbed an age group win as did a few others. Feel free to add/edit/enhance to this story as needed.

E'Town Spring Sprint 5K
added
6/28/10
Ran the first ever Spring Sprint, held on the grounds of the Masonic Home in E'Town. The course was the same that the Frozen Foot used 3-4 years ago when it moved from the college - out a fairly flat stretch passing the model train depot, up a quarter mile or so hill to ridge line, run the length of the ridge passing the market, the wood shop and different kinds of housing, dropping off the ridge down a long hill turning back toward the main/original complex, proceeding on thru the grounds to & through an ornate archway & on to the finish another 200 metres away.
The winner was Nick Mousettis in 16:21, I was second-40 distant seconds back & another guy Mark-age 49 was a minute or so after that. So old guys were....there in force. Familiar names I know totalled 2 - Donovan Graybill and Greg Kerek. Both were age group winners. Weather was good - cool and breezy with a tailwind to start and not much of a headwind elsewhere. The GEARs people-Town's Rec centre always put on quality races-Twilight Trot in August, this one, I think they've got some ties to the Frozen Foot and defunct Peace Run (RIP) & it's well worth it when one can make one.
What else? Donovan talked about planting three hundred thousand dollars worth of flowers in honor of the Lancaster Garden Tour's showcase garden. I'm gonna go dump three hundred thousand dollars worth 'o mulch around my yard and then have nine dollar Springhouse growler with friends as we watch Miles, Rae & friends scamper around.

Hey clubbers,
I ran the Turkey Hill Classic and the BSR this weekend...both were HOT and slowed me down a bit...but I had a kickin time of it. TH Classic was great as always...Karen stayed the 5k allowing me to leave Sil behind with only this sentence for punishment. Many more entrants this year than in the past and it was a warm one on the hills. I got to see lil' Leo whoop butt on the baby race (I want an invite to that party!) and both Sandts in both races. Bill and Doug on the podiums too. Got to witness a good friend in the bike race and cheer him on for many of the laps in between the kids hitting the bouncy houses.
For the BSR we awoke to spritzing and humidity, which turned to straight up sunshine and heat by mile 4....after the fact I found myself on the website during my subway ride with my GSpot shirt on. pretty cool....
The crowd enthusiasm at the bsr is alot of fun...where else can you be cheered on by (and run with -- the back on my feet crew) homeless guys, doughnuts, dunkin doughnuts coffee cups and straight up whack jobs? Well, in Philly, that's where. Mummers belting tunes, lone drummers, rock bands, school bands, high school girls dressed as super heroes, fire hydrants spritzing water, crazy people running with cigarettes in their mouths for one block then falling on the sidewalk...man, what didn't this run have...well, sylvester stallone wasn't there, that's one thing.
Anyway, thought I'd spill the beans since I'm resting this week and doing yardwork. Enjoy.

On a beautiful but suddenly hot Saturday, dozens of LRRC members ventured to the wilds of Manor Township for the Country Classic. After running the 5K for the first 6 years of the event, I chose the 10K this year. Big mistake. At the halfway mark, the course reaches the Susquehanna River, which is the low point on the course. Subsequently, the second half of the race has a lot of climbing, and with the heat, I was just shuffling along.
However, many club members did well and picked up awards. In the women's 50-59, it was a club sweep.
Despite my ineptitude, it was a great day, and Turkey Hill and Manor Township put together a great event that's much more than just the race.
And Karen didn't beat me this week. I have a new strategy. It's called Avoidance. Since she was running the 5K, I did the 10. However, I believe that she should have been DQ'd for cheating because she swapped Miles for someone else's child and gained an advantage of at least 15 pounds. We'll have to see how the commissioner rules on this one.
Tomorrow, come to Ephrata for the Fun Run on the Firecracker course. It's much easier than the Ox Trot.
Saturday, we have 2 races in town - Miles For Moms 5K at Lancaster Catholic High School at 8:30 and Mrs. Smith's Challenge 5-Miler at County Park at 10. They're close enough that the ladies can do both.
Sunday, there's a 5K at E-Town College at 7 PM.

Roving Race Report - Sauders 5Miler
added

I believe that it was a record turnout. Many LRRCers enjoyed the ideal running weather and relatively fast course. I actually came in under 37, which is good for me. I also went down in a spill at the beginning of the race, so that cost me a few seconds and some road rash. Then the day got much worse, but you don't want to know about that injury.
As usual, I was about a mile behind Karen, Miles, and Rae, and I think that I've found a new calling in my running life. I'm going to be a Reverse Rabbit. Instead of going out fast and setting a pace, the way real rabbits do, I'm more of a psychological rabbit. My presence in a race fills other runners with fear of the embarrassment that finishing behind me would bring and inspires them to run their best. Karen said that she had her 5-mile PR today, so if anyone else wants to hire me, contact me for rates.

hi everybody
off to another college tour with junior. we visited drexel in Philadelphia. they offered a 5k prior to the tour. it was a fundraiser for coaches vs cancer, put on by Drexel,Penn, Temple, LaSalle, St Josephs,Villanova and Temple.
We showed up and raced against 200 + folks. Henry and I did ok, he was 10th inh is age group, I placed 3rd in mine. Nice run along boathouse row, while a regatta was going on. A tour of Drexel made me feel as though the only way to get junior into Drexel was via selling a kidney or lung,(tuition is well over 40 k per year!)
Next stop is Hood College or Messiah.

Good article. Fort those not reading the whole thing, here's what can be taken away:
-new plans call for the 23-mile corridor to be user-friendly for hikers, bikers and horseback riders
-plans call for the transmission poles to be moved from the center of the right of way off to the south side.
-a stone-dust trail will be placed in the center of the right of way from Safe Harbor to Atglen. [in lieu of Railroad rock prohibiting much if any foot/bike traffic]
Latest plan will make rail-trail user-friendly
By P.J. REILLY, Staff Writer

http://articles.lancasteronline.com/local/4/250576
Amtrak has revised its plans for refitting the transmission line that runs down the center of the Enola Low-Grade Line in southern Lancaster County, a Bart Township supervisor said Wednesday night.
The new plans call for the 23-mile corridor to be user-friendly for hikers, bikers and horseback riders.
At a special meeting of the Lancaster County commissioners held in Bart Township's municipal building, Supervisor Robert Girvin said the plans call for the transmission poles to be moved from the center of the right of way off to the south side.
Also, the poles will have a rustic finish so they blend in better with the surroundings, and a stone-dust trail will be placed in the center of the right of way from Safe Harbor to Atglen.
Plans unveiled to the public in January called for galvanized poles to be placed in the center of the right of way and did not include the stone-dust trail.
Girvin said officials from the six townships that own the Enola property within their borders — Bart, Conestoga, Eden, Martic, Providence and Sadsbury — expressed concern to Amtrak that the proposed line would interfere with recreational use of the property.
"They worked with us pretty well, because we had quite a few concerns with their plans," Girvin told the commissioners. "I think it's going to work out nice."
Already, trees and brush along the corridor have largely been cleared to make way for the new poles, which will be considerably taller than the existing ones.
Girvin said work replacing those poles is expected to begin in June and must be finished by February 2011, in accordance with rules accompanying the federal stimulus funds Amtrak received to do the work.
The transmission line delivers electricity from Safe Harbor Water Power Corp. to Amtrak's active rail line in Parkesburg.
G-spot Marathon
added
6/28/10
Familiar faces in the crowd running the half were....Steffie Bruckhart, Leo Lutz, Jeff Kirchner, Doug Arnt (I think), Diana Widdowson, Ed Stauffer, and probably others I didn't see. I saw most of this crew in the top 20 just after the turnaround as I went on for the full. No doubt they all placed very well and had great times because they were kickin it.
Karen Sandt, Bill Doherty (it was his birthday!), Pete Barber, and myself all ran the full boat. I think there were probably others from the club in the crowd I didn't see. I ran with Bill for a few miles in the middle and Karen pulled me up a hill around mile 20. Karen, Bill, and Pete all were 1st in their age groups and ahead of me. I was thrilled to run a road marathon and not get cramps between 18 and 20 miles for the first time ever (yay)!
I really like this course and there are so many scenic views it is an easy marathon on the roads, as far as that goes. I had a great time and was happy to make it to 26.1 without a leg cramp (yeah, really, at 26.1?..stupid leg, but I showed it by running really fast to finish, Evan got the floating dave picture to prove it).
I met up with the Amtrak halfers for part 2 at Stubby's and we had a good time there (isn't part 2 always good anywhere?) as well.
Well, that's it...short and sweet. Gspot report by formerly lancaster dave, now hempfield dave, or spliff, or marijuana dave, or just dave....it's all good, really.
p.s. our club kicks ass.
Farmers 5k - race in review!

Sil let me win. He insists he did not, but it's true. As he ages he is getting soft and hearing me wheeze, cough, hack, and swear as I passed him at mile 2 into a head wind, up a hill with a stroller was too much for the old fart and he gave me the victory by half a second. Thank you Mr Simpson.
Also of interest - as the years pass, Sil's fashion seems to be improving. Today he wore a non-descript white shirt and blue shorts to race. I could barely make him out in the pack ahead for the first 2 miles. He is also reported as saying of the orange race t-shirt we received today "this is an interesting color". ???? Where is the flourescent green, purple, yellow of races past? The man who threatened to lace the race course with thumbtacks to beat me? Is this competition getting boring?
I have decided to let Sil rest. Next up in the crosshairs....Carl Spangler. I have never beaten him. Even the race he stopped 3 times to tie his shoes. It's the dawning of a new age......
F Work I'm Running!
added
6/28/10
A big thanks to all who attended the annual F Work I'm Running event this year. I'm not sure how many this has been, but it's a great tradition, and there were new attendees this time around. Ed Stauffer, Bill Doherty and I started the day off with a four mile run through the local neighborhood. We headed inside and were joined by Dave Hirneisen (who also doubled as AV man with his lap top in tow) and Aimee Harmon, who was chef extraordinaire. She made some delicious stuffed french toast for the group. That girl really knows her way around the kitchen! Bill brought the coffee machine and plenty of coffee to brew in it (along with crackers and spreadable cheese), which was much appreciated also. A little later, after the marathon started, Carli Moua and her two boys joined us for the festivities. In addition to the stuff we had laid out, further consumption was resumed as Carli brought some excellent doughnuts and a variety of Twizzlers! Needless to say, no one went hungry.
The race was very entertaining this year also. The women's top two finishers were separated by only 3 seconds! For a while it looked like the second place Russian woman (Tatyana Pushkareva) would pass the leading Ethiopian (Teyba Erkesso)...but it was not to be! An incredible race. The men's race may not have had the same drama, but it was very entertaining nonetheless. Robert Kiprono Cheruiyot won the race in record time, an amazing 2:05:52! Ryan Hall and Meb Keflezighi finished 4th and 5th, a quite impressive result for the Americans.
I think everyone had a really good time. With any luck, next year's event will be equally successful. Dave Hirneisen took some pictures of our group and has promised to send them to me for further distribution. Perhaps his pictures will even include the one of Aimee wearing the feather boa and the bunny ears! Oops...did I let the cat out of the bag?

be more than ample space. There are flush toilets and hot showers available
on site as well.
As I confirm the final course and figure out all the details, I will
send the information to these email addresses. In the meantime, spread
