Mark Lundblad set his sights on the Foothills Trail FKT this past weekend. The course record for the 77 miles was 16:23. Well, that was not fast enough for Lundblad. Mark destroyed the 2005 course record with a new time of 14:26. He wore his roclite 295's :) Mark ran the entire course without a pacer, and was crewed by Anne Lundblad (go Team Lundblad!). The weather was good with just a bit of wind.
Switching up terrain and distance, Lisa Mikkelsen participated at the New England USATF Championships held at Harvard University. Lisa's choice events are the 400 and 200 meters. While competing in the 400, Lisa tweaked her achilles in the first 75 meters. Being the tough and determined woman that she is, Lisa pushed through and was able to take a 1st place finish in 59:92...which is also a new AMERICAN RECORD for Woment 45-49. Can you say machine :) Congrats Lisa, you are amazing!

Awesome accomplishment Lisa, I would have tweaked a lot more than my achilles trying to run that fast. Very nice!
Cheers,
Mark
Mark- Your FHT time is amazing. Well done. I thought Matt's time was definitely doable, but I'm not so sure about yours. Way to set the bar high.
