RACE RESULTS AND PICTURES ON FACEBOOK

The majority of the club's race results and pictures are on our Facebook page. It is much easier to post to FB, along with numerous pictures. Plus, everyone who is a member can post their own pictures and results. For our local events, I will continue to post them here. (Please note that sometimes the race results do not post correctly such as the 2011 Swamp Run. I apologize that they are a " jumbled up mess"
but after numerous attempts at trying to type them on individual lines, I finally gave up.)

If you are on FB but not on the club's FB page, go to Okefenokee Track Club and click "Like".
(I was not able to change the page to Okefenokee Track & Cycling Club
without starting over, but I was able to use our new logo.)

Varnadore PR's in Run for Cover 5K!


On May 2, Don Varnadore PR'd in the "Run for Cover" in Jacksonville with a time of 23:56. Congratulations, Don, on a great race! Debbie Yawn also competed in the 5K winning 3rd in her age group with a time of 31:48. Put on by the young attorneys of Jacksonville, a free skin cancer screening was also available.

Which opens the door to remind everyone - WEAR your sunscreen and a hat! Though most of you know that, some people still need to be reminded how important it is!

Shrimp Festival 5K Run/Walk

Track Club member Kim Spivey enjoyed a beautiful day in Fernandina Beach by running the 13th Annual Shrimp Festival 5K Run/Walk on May 2nd. There were 516 total finishers, 276 of the runners being women. Per Kim, "As usual, the Fernandina YMCA put on a great run, with a bouncy house for children, yoga warm-up sessions before the race, and a post-race Publix bagel and water tent. They even had free massages!"
