Charleston 40-Mile Relay Champs (Year 2)

Author natatkinson    Category Team SteepleWeb     Tags

SteepleWeb had a team compete in the 2nd annual Charleston Challenge 40 Mile Relay in Charleston, IL. There were double the teams this year – but our goal was to obviously win again – but also to break 4 hours (last year we ran 4 hours and 7 minutes).

The weather was fantastic, and we had a great group of guys competing for SteepleWeb (only 1 returning runner from last year)!

Our time was 3:59.01 (set the course record) and the next team was 55 minutes behind us.  Here is some eye candy for you!
