Runners could choose how many laps of the 3.28 mile course they wanted to do. Jeremy Reichelt chose to see how far he could run in 3 hours, and completed 6 laps – 19.68 miles – in 3:10:15. Kira Green ran 4 laps on Saturday – 13.3 miles in 3h03, and another 2 laps on Sunday – 6.6 miles in 1h30. Beth Webster was aiming for her first half marathon distance (4 laps), which she completed in 3:21:44. Julie Mumby, struggling with a back injury, ran a lap in 42:58 to get a medal for son Sam, who was hoping to do the event himself, but couldn’t due to illness. Kim Etherington Bates ran 2 laps (6.6 miles) in 56:33. Other NOTFAST runners were Gill Goode, Cliff Robinson, Madaleine Combie, and Netty Stevens.
