Cherry Blossom Results

I guess the wind and the home course helps! A huge day for the Dojo at the Cherry Blossom 10 Miler. The biggest news: we won a Cherry Blossom team category for the first time, as our women's team took the open club competition. We also had a valiant 8th place finish by one of our men's teams in the club competition. Also, Jen Maranzano made it onto Cherry Blossom's virtual podium, finishing 25th among women. What a bad year to have the awards ceremony cancelled!

Some lucky folks got to hang with Meb.




Here are the results. As always, if I missed your result, it was incompetence, not intention.  Shoot me an email so I can make amends.
