1st Edition of The Terminator 5.5 miles

We had a great time!! We wish more of you could have come! The temperature was 59, partly sunny, no rain. Perfect for running!

The race was 5.5 miles. The elevation rise was 1,000' in the first three miles and then 2.5 miles back to the start. The many varieties of colorful mushrooms and view of the Nenana Valley could seriously distract the most concentrated runner! Nevertheless: 1st place overall man was Paul Krenzke, age 16, time: 46:15 1st place overall woman was Lorry Yates, age 56, time 1:03:28.

This is the Nenana version of Kevin Brinegar / Devin McDowell duo as Lorry is Paul's cross-country / track coach.

Since our numbers were minimal, we were able to give all of our runners an extra prize, their choice of mug or Yutana Barge Lines T-shirt. The all-you-can-eat Chinese food dinner cooked from scratch by Xia Baker was delicious. She served: Sweet & Sour Soup, Pot Stickers, Chow Mein, Fried Rice with vegetables and pork and Egg Rolls.
