XTERRA Runners Finish Big at Folsom Lake
(Folsom, CA) - Ace Ware, 26, and Sarah Raitter, 36, blew past the competition at this weekend's XTERRA Chanoko Trail Run 16k. On the drizzly, chilly morning, runners came out to Folsom Lake to prove they had what it took to overcome the grueling, winding hills and uneven slippery trails. Ace Ware, with his time of 1:02:36 came in first for the men a mere minute ahead of runner-up William Raitter, 38. For the women, Reno native Sarah Raitter, 36, won with her time of 1:05:47 solidifying her win over Mary Courtright by a margin of almost twelve minutes. The youngest runner to cross the finish line was Reaghan Emrick. Only twelve years old, this El Dorado Hills resident has placed in the top 11 females or better overall in the last 3 races she has entered during the 2008 running season. Coming in with her time of 1:32:49, Reaghan continued her streak this past Saturday. With runners ranging in age from 12 to 64, the XTERRA Chanoko Trail Run proved to be an event for athletes of all ages. The ten mile run gave Northern California's runners the opportunity to come face to face with the best nature had to offer.
