Notes
Scheduled LONG run - 15 miles at MP+10 or 8:14. Ran with Rick and Cremer. We were on a new route - fairly flat with a good long hill at mile 6 and 11. We started fairly slowly with my goal of pushing harder the 2nd half to make my pace goal. Everything was fine and I made it back home without issue. Took 2 GU's and brought 2 water and 2 powerades. After getting home Cremer came in about a minute or so later... but after 10 minutes Rick had still not come back. I ran backout 1 mile looking for him with no luck. I even asked a bike rider coming from that direction if they saw a runner... no luck. Since we were all together on the Bragdon Rd I figured Rick must have missed the turn for Perry Oliver. Cremer and I drove around and even went toward North Berwick on Rte 9 - No Rick. we tried a bunch of side roads... No Rick. No we are getting worried... did he get hurt, someone run him off the road... even alien abduction? We came back to the house and still no Rick. It is now about 40 minutes since I finished. I call Well PD and asked if a 911 came in on a runner? I give them the route we ran and a description of Rick. They inturn call Sanford and we now have an APB on Ricky! Cremer and I go back out again driving the course andthis time head all the way into N Berwick. No Rick. We drive 4 miles up Rte 4 to Country Club 3 and there about 1/2 mile ahead is Ricky walking. He had missed the Perry Oliver and ended up walking an additional 7 miles - without water. Rick's total for the day 13 run - 7 walk, me 15.8 running plus another 2.2 miles running back for Rick... and about 15 miles of driving
