Tucson Marathon 2006

Windy conditions greeted the runners as dawn broke over the Catalina Mountains in Tucson. Monica Kynor was seen cruising through the 1/2 marathon with our friend Paul Rhodes. In the Marathon, Kim Wall scooted to a personal best and Julie Armbrecht got her Boston qualifying time. Charlie Leight, Jeff Grout and Colleen Leppert ran strong to the finish that featured a brutal hill at the finish line in the El Conquistador resort.
