The Other Seniors

After seeing the report of a couple of our WHS Seniors running the Flying Pig Half-Marathon, another report came on from some senior (citizen) runners.

Three of us (old - their words - not mine) Wyoming women rocked the Half Marathon..
In our age group (which by threat of bodily harm I was prohibited from printing), we placed:

Elizabeth Weis (8th)
Britta Schwartz (10th)
Kay Vongsakhamphouy (14th)

This is out of 761 runners!!

Kay also ran the 10K the day before and got 3rd in her age group.  

Okay, right, they aren't actually senior citizens, but it can be tough to work the tie-ins sometimes... and the report did come in kinda slow (like old people pushing their cart in front of you in the grocery store when you're in a big hurry kind of slow, not that I personally ever feel that way towards our respected, beloved elders, but I hear from others less patient than I that it can be a frustrating situation) which seems uncharacteristic for the ladies as they are apparently very fast.
