Terry Garrett at the Corsicana Stage Race

Terry Garrett had a great race at the Corsicana Stage Race on May 9th and 10th.  Twenty-one athletes started, and Terry finished his first stage race in 12th place. The first stage was crit (which was Terry's first crit!), the second was a 10K TT, and the third was a Road Race. Proud of you for toe-ing the line in that crit race, Terry!

Conn's Green 10K

Three ORR ladies raced the Conn's Green 10K on April 28th.  This race is  the premier eco-friendly green running event in Houston during Earth Week.  The Race is put on by our very own sponsor, Race Assist.

Aeri York competed on her first 10 K ever running an 8:03 min/mile that earned her 3rd place out of 83 ladies in the 40-44 AG.   Way to get started Aeri!

Stacy Baldrige, our athlete spotlight of the month, ran in 1:06 shaving more than 15 minutes from her participation in this event last year!

Tammy Darnell ran in 1:02.  She is just recently getting back to the sport and getting ready for Buffalo Springs 70.3.  Way to race Tammy!

This was another great day of accomplishments for the ORR crew!
