We’ve already reviewed the 5K results and the half results, today we’re on to the combined RUN results!
Run Challenge (Combined 5K + Hilly Half results)
There were a number of factors influencing these results, especially with the order athletes decided to hit each event. Some ran their half marathon first on fresh legs, while others did it directly after another event, understandably going in fatigued. Despite over 26K of racing on two separate courses, there still were some really close battles that went down including:
10s separation between Sam Lalonde (2:13:35) and Tim Coleman (2:13:45) with Ola only 7s back (2:13:52), 5s in between David Wan (2:01:01) and Peter Van Driel (2:01:06), 10s between Alex T (1:51:02) and Luke (1:51:12), 3s between Steve Tremblay (1:48:43) and Ken Cooper (1:48:46) and 6s between Merzi (1:53:33) and Devon (1:53:39).
