Prime Time

By Ian Rudiger






It is that time of year were many dreams come true. I know what you are wondering. You are wondering why is it at this time of year do peoples dreams come true, well there are many race for fundraising. There are also many Marathons and Half Marathons that people train all over the country to do. Here is some races that stuck out to me after I did some research.



There was one huge marathon that happened just one week ago; the New York City Marathon. Many people across the country train all year to succeed in this marathon. The top men’s finisher came across the finish line 2:09:57 the name of the guy was Meb Keflezighi from the U.S.A. The top women’s finisher came across the finish line 2:28:52 her name was Derartu Tulu who is from Ethiopia. The New York marathon has been around for a long time and has gotten the reputation to get fairly large.



A great race happened yesterday located in Stapleton Colorado. It was called the Home for the Holidays it was a 5K walk/run.



A great Marathon is coming up it is located in Sacromento California. It is at low altitude so there will be many fast times. My dad is looking to qualify for the Boston Marathon the biggest Marathon in the country. I think he will be able to do it because he is at a low altitude so I think that he will do better because he will have better breathing. This has been a great prime running season and lets hope the best to all of the runners out there to succeed.
