The ENDURrun is fast approaching! We had an amazing time last year, but this year is shaping up to be even better. As many of you know, H+P will have 7 relay teams with various challenges to tackle as they conquer this week-long 7-stage race. Every Wednesday in July, we will be revealing 1-2 of our teams along with their goals for the event.
TODAY we are excited to introduce our 2015 H+P ENDURrun Women’s Team!
Goals:
- We had a great team last year, but this year our fastest women are looking better than ever before. Goal #1 will be to take down last year’s women’s course record time of 13:58.
- The second, and perhaps most exciting goal to follow will be very simple: take down our 2015 H+P Masters Men’s ENDURrun team (roster to be announced next week).
