Iceman Series 4 Results - Point Series Standings Available.

Now that the distance is getting longer the challenge is greater.  In the early discussions while planning of the Iceman Series (Springfield's first winter running series), we thought it would be a challenge to keep the participation up in the longer distances.  To make it interesting for the Feb 8th run, we will award points for the 10K and a 20K distance in the final event.  To be fair, if you run the 20K you'll get bonus points that gives you an advantage over the 10K distance in your age bracket.  Location will be announced later this week.

If you have been setting on the sidelines and watching this contest, it is not too late to come out and be a part of the series.  Every run has been a great experience for everyone.  

For the last event on Feb 8th, in addition to the unique commemorative mug and a $5 certificate for food and drinks, you will receive a chance to win a free registration to the Springfield Marathon, Half Marathon or 10K.  Here is the link to sign up for the Feb 8th run.

We had 40 registrations for the Jan 25th event.  Photo below was taken shortly before the start of the run.

Trevor Orthman is our overall top male finisher and Heather Rauscher is the top female finisher. The wind

was the biggest factor along the route but helped everyone finish strong on the last couple of miles.  Adding in the shortcut through the woods from Koke Mill to the Sangamon Valley Trail made this run one to remember!
