| Happy New Year. 2011 will soon be coming to a close and we will br greeting 2012. A new year can mark new beginnings - new records, new goals, or maybe just new shoes. Wolfpitters will celebrate in their own unique ways. Planning is underway for the annual Lubrano Barry Festival, which is tentatively scheduled to be in February. Please check back for details. In 2011 Wolfpitters enjoyed many wonderful events including another successful half marathon. In December, Tom and Susie once again outdid themselves with their hospitality in hosting Wolfpit's annual holiday gathering. A recap of 2011, photos from the party and various race reports can be found in the December issue of Wolftracks. | |
| The 35th Annual Ridgefield Pamby Half Marathon The 35th Ridgefield Pamby Half Marathon had a field of 474 runners despite early morning showers. Overall winners were Geoff Nelson with a time of 1:12:45 and Mary Zengo with a time of 1:29:34. A video of the 2011 race is now available for your viewing pleasure. The 35th Annual Ridgefield Pamby Half Marathon. Wolfpit was honored and delighted that Toby Tanser, who won the Half in 1999, and runners from his Shoe4Africa Team ran the Half. We were even more delighted when so many runners donated their used running shoes to Shoe4Africa an organization that supports sub-Saharan education and public health, and also provides running shoes for the many African communities that Toby inspires. Total count isn't in but there appeared to be a couple hundred pairs of shoes donated. More information about Toby Tanser may be found on his web site Tanser.org. Thank you to all who donated shoes, to all who ran, to all who volunteered, and to all who cheered on the runners. And, of course, thank you to our sponsors for helping to make the 35th Annual Ridgefield Pamby Half Marathon a success. Complete race results can be found on HiTek Racing. A recap of the race and the post race party, as well as article about other races can be found the October issue of Wolftracks. | |
