A day of Suprises at the Arc 1/2 Marathon.

The Groton Gophers had incredible day on September 9, 2006. All of us set our own Personal Records for a half marathon.

The Arc 1/2 Marathon in Long Branch Park, Liverpool NY is the place to set a Personal Record. The course is very flat, and very well run. This is the return of 3 of the Gophers to this course. Stephen Codner had an incredible run to lead the Gophers with a 1:39:46 (7:37/mile pace), followed by Ron Moores first Arc Half Marathon with a 1:41:16 (7:44/mile pace). Next came Steve Gallow with a 1:48:49 (8:19/mile pace). Ray Wagner who decided that working in California and not running for about a month would be his strategy came in with a 1:52:17 (8:35/mile pace)

A Good Time was had by all, and were looking very strong for a sub 4 hour marathon come October 1st at the Wine Glass Marathon.
Check out the slide show of our adventure.
