Mercer Island was our first local team race of the year with 9 Pauole Sport athletes running the Half Marathon.  Everyone had great races so early in the season and on a pretty hilly course.  Awesome to see everyone’s winter training paying off.  Coach Cathleen Knutson lead the team with a speedy sub 1:30 race.  Jeff Dolan, Michael Ewing, and Dustin Ruh all had Half Ironman PR’s and all finished very close together. It was a beautiful morning for a race and great to see all our athletes looking so strong,  especially up the last big hill before the finish.  It was nice to have Bert Chavez and Sarah Anderson out cheering and supporting.  Well done team…proud of everyone’s efforts!
