Fast guys: Corey Oliver, Blake Henning, and Ben Sachs

Corey Oliver ran his first half marathon on March 6th in College Station in the Armadillo Dash Half Marathon.  He ran a speedy 1:36:54, or 7:23 min/mile pace.  Corey is training for Ironman Texas in May, and used this race as a training event.

Blake Henning is also training for Ironman Texas and ran the Bayou City Classic 10K as a training race.  He set a personal best 47:10, or 7:36 min/mile for the 6.2 mile event. Blake finished 30th in his age-group in this competitive race.

Ben Sachs ran the Bayou City Classic only a few weeks after running the San Antonio marathon. Ben ran 40 minutes flat (or 6:26 min/mile pace!) at the Bayou City Classic 10K. Ben is planning on racing another marathon in June.

Awesome running guys!
