VFR Rocks the Vancouver BMO Marathon with stellar results

Once again Vancouver Frontrunners absolutely rocked the BMO race event yesterday and the results are phenomenal.

VFR recorded perhaps the highest turnout for any running event yesterday with a total of 38 registered participants!  Congratulations to all of you who made it out to run and finish their respective events.
Kudos to Kai S who set a new PB with an astounding sub 1:30 half marathon performance, Kangsoon P who joined the ranks with his Boston Qualifier, Clare H with her top 10 8K performance in her category, and Rohan H who trained and ran a perfect marathon meeting his goal time with seconds to spare.

The Marathon Relay event was a smashing success for VFR with 5 teams entering as recreational, 3 of which placed top 10 overall!

Honourable mentions go to Nicholas S who tore the anchor leg with a blistering 3:48/km performance, Xavier T, Jeff C, & Andrew H who far exceeded expected times in their respective legs, & Gerry T who conquered Camosen hill to come in his exchange point ahead of schedule!  Well done everyone!
