The PRT Open Men's squad turned in a very solid performance at the Balboa 4-miler on September 1, taking third place in a tight battle with SDTC and Adidas Movin Shoes. We were led by new member Armando Lara, who put himself right in the mix with the lead group and finished fifth overall, breaking twenty-two minutes on a sadistic course on a hot day. Rounding out our scoring runners were Dan Seidel (22:13), Derek Bradley (22:34), Alex Phipps (22:43), and Andy Corman (22:51), all finishing in the top twenty. Luis de la Vega (23:18) and Chuck McKeown (23:29) were close behind.
The Bonita 8k, held in Sweetwater Park on September 22 and featuring several hay bale jumps, was a tougher day for the Open Men. We had a small turnout and the other squads were too strong, so PRT had to settle for fourth. Dan S. took seventh (26:30), followed by Alex (27:15), Derek (27:23), Brian Culley (28:23), and James Fieberg (29:49).
Roughly halfway through the Dirt Dog Series, PRT now sits in third place, a few points behind Adidas. We're still looking for a team victory at one of the three remaining races before the championship on November 10, so mark your calendars for the next race--the Balboa Boogie 5k, on October 13. Register here for that race.

Recap of Balboa 4-Miler
The defending Dirt Dog Champions have dominated with their second win of the season at the Balboa 4-Miler. While the team was still missing a few women, the woman managed to have a presence in the field. PRT women have established a reputation as a consistently dominant team and will continue to try and hold on to No. 1 this season. Click here for results : Balboa 4-Miler 2012.
Our first athlete Jenna Munguia came in second at 24:21 behind, Adidas/ Moving Shoes athlete Claire Rethmeier, at 24:03. Our next two athletes came in before Adidas/ Moving Shoes second athlete crossed the line. Hilary Corno, at 25:14 and Marie Schaper at 25:34. Caela Timinsky, 26:12 and Kristin Schleicher 26:35 rounded out our top five, as 7 and 8.
One of the trademarks of the PRT Women is the impressive depth of the group. The Prado Women were able to send out so many talented runners that if one or two had an injury or an off day, someone else would be able to fill right in without missing a beat. Look for the Prado Racing Women at the Bonita 8K on the 22nd!
