On Saturday, June 18, 2016 former Central Maine Striders club president Dean Rasmussen and every runner's favorite mentor, Ron Paquette, each ran their 35th consecutive Mt. Washington Road Race on a picture-perfect day. The challenging race is a 7.6-mile hill climb to the summit of New Hampshire's Mt. Washington via the Mt. Washington Auto Road and climbs more than 4,500 feet.

For his 75th birthday this year, Ron asked his wife, Donnajean Pohlman, to accompany him on his race to the clouds. Having previously run the hill 15 times, she consented to just one more and both were seen with smiles on their faces before and after the event (see photo at right).

Another longtime Strider couple, Rick and Anne-Marie Davee, had strong performances with Anne-Marie medaling with a second place in her division.

Striders were well represented among the 1,153 finishers. We not only had a strong showing of our runners from both Maine and away, but many friends and family enjoyed the day socializing and volunteering.

Thanks to everyone who came out to volunteer. Beth Pilsbury Bridger, my wife, Lyn McGuire, and I served turkey dinner with all the fixin's after the race, and several runners and their families worked on the cleanup crew. (Were you one? Please let us know by sending an email to alicia@macleay.com, so we can add you to this race report.) 

Congratulations to Patrick Guerette (21:06) and Stephanie LeBlanc (25:04) the top male and female finishers at the 6th annual Run/Walk for Life 5K held on Saturday, June 25, at Thomas College in Waterville. The race benefited Hospice Volunteers of Waterville Area and L.N. Clark Inspiration Network. ​
​

Congratulations to Chris Poirier (37:01) and Hannah Raymond (41:38) the men's and women's winners respectively of the second annual Quarry Snow Shuffle 5K snowshoe race. The event was held on Sunday, February 7, at Quarry Road Trails in Waterville.

Thanks to all who joined the race or the 1-mile family fun run/snowshoe walk. All proceeds from the event benefited the nonprofit WinterKids.
