The weather was perfect and the spirits were high as we took off for our 10th annual Bulldog 50K Ultrarun. Jorge Pacheco set a new course record of 3:54:56 followed in hot pursuit by Peter Park 3:59:16. First female, Maria Gallardo set a great pace of 5:09:35.
Link Lindquist 73, our oldest runner, finished in 6:12:13 (39th place) and improved his 1999 time by 23 minutes. Whats your secret? You are our inspiration! Yuzie Mochida 71, is also a shining example for all. She finished in 8:09:00, looking just great as she came across the finish line.
We enjoyed having all of you as part of our Bulldog family and hope to see you next year on SEPTEMBER 7, 2002 (always the weekend after labor Day).
