2010 Weekly Back Cove 5k » Week 13 of 17

By on Friday, August 6th, 2010 | No Comments

Temperatures in the upper 80s with a fair bit of humidity made things a bit toasty this week at the Back Cove 5k, but Andrew Clemence (17:13) and Christine Irish (19:56) didn’t let that slow them down as they both won their races by over a minute. 186 people finished the race on Wednesday night, [...]

2010 Weekly Back Cove 5k » Week 12 of 17

By on Friday, July 30th, 2010 | No Comments

Last week I skipped the Weekly Back Cove Series since I knew that I’d run faster than I should right after my 50k. There were 169 people that braved the weather, but the storms held off in Portland long enough for the racers to stay dry. Nick Wheeler (16:21) and Christine Irish (20:04) both ran [...]

2010 Weekly Back Cove 5k » Week 10 of 17

The weather was relatively cool last night at the 10th Back Cove 5k, hovering in the mid-70s (which is nice compared to the past few weeks), but the humidity was much higher than I was expecting it to be. I went out right where I wanted to be with a 5:33, after which I passed [...]

2010 Weekly Back Cove 5k » Week 8 of 17

Beautiful weather and a strong field led to 9 finishers under 18 minutes last night with Claton Conrad winning the race in 16:19 by over 40 seconds. Erin Lane was the only woman under 20 minutes as she finished with her husband and daughter in 19:53. There were 244 finishers in the race. I just [...]

2010 Weekly Back Cove 5k » Weeks 5 Through 7 of 17

By on Thursday, June 24th, 2010 | No Comments

The past 3 weeks, I’ve tried running with a different crowd but they leave at 5:30 so I’m always a minute or two late trying to get there from work. This week I parked a few miles away and ran towards them so that I could actually get a run in with them, which worked [...]

2010 Weekly Back Cove 5k » Week 4 of 17

By on Friday, June 4th, 2010 | No Comments

This Wednesday was the 4th Back Cove 5k of the season, and the air quality was less than ideal given the smoke and ash particles coming our way from the forest fires in Quebec. The temperature was a nice 57 degrees, although the air was very dry despite looking humid from the general haze. I [...]

2010 Weekly Back Cove 5k – Week 3 of 17

By on Thursday, May 27th, 2010 | 3 Comments

I think that I probably wasn’t alone while dreading the 5k last night. When I left work, it was 91 degrees out with no air movement. Thankfully, by the time that I drove to the race start, about 5 miles towards the ocean, the temperature had dropped about 20 degrees and a nice breeze had [...]

Weekly Back Cove 5k Kicks Off For 2010

By on Wednesday, May 12th, 2010 | No Comments

Portland’s weekly Summer 5k race series kicked off this evening with temperatures about as great as you could ask for in any race and a nice tailwind for the first mile. Of course, that meant that there was a pretty stiff breeze in the last two miles but all in all the weather was quite [...]
