Easter weekend is typically a quite weekend on the race front, but we had two RunnersConnect members chase down the Easter Bunny for a new PR.
Eva Wang and Brent Frissora ran a challenging 5k on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania and each had a breakthrough performance. Brent was the overall winner in a new personal best of 15:56 and Eva also recorded a PR in a time of 20:38. Eva outsprinted her competition and was the second female finisher.
The course was technically challenging because it was on the walkways of campus with many 90 degree turns. All of the tough interval workouts are paying off and on a better course both Eva and Brent are ready for even more impressive improvements.
A great way to kick off the month of April and continue on our record setting PR pace. Next week will be much anticipated Boston Marathon recap. Good luck to everyone racing at Boston and around the country!
