Richard Hefner Past Race Results (Athlinks)
On the road again...
I write. I read. I run. One time, I ran a lot on my 50th birthday.

I'm on there thanks to Richard! Athlinks even found a race I did in 2002. Hopefully I'll be getting some more races added soon. I just need to look some up and go!
Richard probably thinks I'm stalking him. Since meeting him at a race last month I've found him on line in several places and even ran into him at the park. Finding your blog gave me lots of great running sites to use! Thank you!
Hey Ashley... good to see you in here! I don't think anybody in their right mind would stalk me so you're safe on that account. You should have come over to the King Tiger 5k and ran this morning. It was really a good one. There were a few jogging strollers and you would have done well with yours. I saw Debbie over there before the race and talked to her for a few minutes but never did see her again after that. It was pretty crowded with about 800 runners.
What other 5k's are you doing soon? I was looking at the Hickory one next weekend and the Summer Breeze on the 20th. I was waiting to race again until I got a bit fitter. That last 5k was tough on me and I'd like to feel more fit next time. I'm finally getting to the point where 3 miles isn't so tough, now if I could just get 4 miles to be easier!
I copied and pasted my upcoming races list from my blog. The China Grove 5k is next Friday night at 9 o'clock... seems like fun but maybe it's too late if you're bringing the baby. The one in Hickory will be smaller than some of the Charlotte races (150 runners maybe?). The Miles of Mooresville runs look like fun and are on Friday nights. Summer Breeze is separate races for men and women that start 30 minutes apart at Freedom Park. They're all kind of interesting in their own way. You were really fast in the Belmont race, so if you were out of shape you'll be a force to be reckoned with when you get in shape!

Richard, I see this race is on your list. Ya'll will have to come over sometime this summer on a Monday for a course review run. I got selected to co-organize the Monday run with the Charlotte Runners. I'm alternating the Monday run and using this course as my selection. I needed something flat to run in Dilworth and this is the closest thing to it. I think there is one minor hill section. You will be able to kill this course in August.
I'll run it twice this Monday. We start at Charlotte Running Company at 6:30.
Hey Lynwood... Not sure I can make it over there at 6:30 today but will if I can. Glad to hear it's a flat course though -- that's always nice!
I looked for your results at the King Tiger 5k this weekend but didn't find you... were you not able to make it?
No, I wanted to race, but had too many kid activities to handle. That's a good reason to miss a race though. They aren't young very long.
I would have looked you up. I'll try to catch one or more on your list when possible. I'll be gunning for the 23:00's this time, so I'll chase you as long as I can. Great race for you. The pictures on your blog were a great idea also.
I forgot to tell ya'll a while back I was planning on racing the GBS 5k here in Charlotte. I had a schedule change, so I took my 11 year old daughter and we ran the Miracle Mile with the people recovering from that terrible disease. That's a worthwhile race and a great, small event. It really had a big impact on me seeing the people in the race we were supporting.
My daughter ran a 10:15 mile without stopping, and we had a blast. One of the girls in my group ran with us and paid her a lot of attention. That was a nice touch. And my daughter got to experience the racing environment and loved it.
