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.)

4th annual Harvest Run 5K

The 4th annual Harvest Run 5K took place at First Baptist Church Waycross on the evening of August 28, 2010. There was a good turnout for the 1 Mile Fun Run and the 5K Run/Walk. All proceeds are to benefit Mary Street Mission. This is a Christian mission group that assists many struggling members of the community with food, clothing, vouchers, while also providing them with with encouragement and Christian counseling. Once again, the OTCC represented the club by taking home winning trophies.
There was also a drawing for a basket with lots of goodies, including a free entry for next year's Heels and Wheels Megan's House Duathlon Challenge. To qualify, you had to compete in the duathlon and Harvest Run that day. Congratulations to Cheryl Monroe for winning the grand prize!
Many thanks to OTCC'ers Kevin and Barry Barnes for all of their hard work in putting this race together, along with the many volunteers.

Heels and Wheels for Megan's House Duathlon Challenge-August 28, 2010

The OTCC was well-represented in the Duathlon, which included a 2 mile run, followed by a 13 mile bike, and finished with another 2 mile run in and around Laura S. Walker State Park. More importantly, the athletes helped to fund a worthy cause through Easter Seals Southern Georgia. Funds are used for respite care/family support for primary caregivers of individuals with disabilities. This organization was very appreciate of the assistance. (Ron Crosby)
