Team Snap At Max's O'Hartford 5K!

Hey Everyone!

So the club put together a small team to compete in the Max's O'Hartford 5K yesterday afternoon, and the group had a BLAST!  We ran our butts off, and competed with 2,567 other people!!  Our roster was small, and though we didn't wear any official Snap gear, we were cheering each other on and enjoying ourselves.  It was a great afternoon full of friends and sunshine, and we didn't let our competitive sides slide at all!  Here are our results: 

Jessica Bergen   - 757th Overall    -   26:56    (53/260 for her division)

Ryan Colgan       - 917th Overall    -   27:56    (100/145 for his division)

Kelly Mazzola     - 918th Overall    -   27:56    (70/260 for her division)

Carly Newlan      - 1,101st Overall  -   29:03    (103/260 for her division)

You can check out all of the official results of the race here.  As always, if you are interested in participating in any fun running events with the club, let us know!  We'd love to have you join us, and we'd LOVE to hear of some upcoming events to participate in!!

Here are some photos of the group before and after the race!
