Southern Utahs Hobie Call Qualifies For The Marathon Olympic Trials Posted: Sep 24, 2007

Call destroys course record

By Jason Turner

Hobie Call was in town a year ago when Kenyan George Towett took down his course record at the NordicTrack Top of Utah Marathon.

Needless to say, Call — who placed third a year ago — wasn’t overly excited when Towett covered the 26.2-mile course in 2 hours, 20 minutes, 2 seconds, which was more than five minutes faster than the standard Call established in 2002.

Utah Summer Games 10k Posted: Jun 23, 2007

Utah Summer Games 10k - June 15, 2007 - Holy Zooming Batman! The USG 10K was quite the PR setter for most of the club. The downhill course started up Cedar Canyon just outside of Cedar City, UT and came down to the park in the middle of town.  After the gun went off, it was amazing to see how many guys took off.  The leaders were all well under 5 min pace for most of the race.   Once again the club did really well and its exciting to see everyone improving as we progress into summer.
