Well organized running events that benefit a good cause tend to grow in popularity each year.  The Howard Aslinger Memorial Scholarship Foundation Endurance Weekend is a perfect example.  Since the inaugural running in 2011, entries in the 24-hour and 12-hour endurance runs have increased nearly 50%.

New this year is the addition of a Wheelchair Division.  As always, runners will make a series of approximately one-mile loops around Arena Park.  The course set up provides individuals wanting to attempt or experience ultra-running an introduction to the sport on a condensed and controlled playing field.  The 2013 field is a mix of veterans, rookies, and parathletes.  Runners from seven different states are present.

 

2013 also features the kickoff of Cape Road Runners Grand Prix Series.  The Endurance Weekend's Midnight 5K makes its series debut attracting 48 coffee-fueled runners looking to score some valuable early age-group points.

Seventh Annual Chaffee Race for the Cure 5K

Chaffee, MO -- February 23. 2013 (Results @ Cape Road Runners: http://www.caperoadrunners.org/Results/2013/Chaffee%20Race%20for%20the%20Cure.pdf )

Flat, fast, and accurate course; awards for overall winners along with winners in  fourteen different age groups; excellent race organization; and all for the next-to-nothing $15.00 entry fee.  The always popular Chaffee Race for the Cure sees nearly 200 participants on the starting line for its seventh running.

Cape Road Runner's 2012 Runner of the Year Joe Windeknecht continues on his road to Boston with his second overall win in 2013.  Joe runs an adult personal best of 18:02 to finish ahead of Patrick Matthews from Malden and Chaffee's own Dusty Ashby.

In previous years, the women's overall has been dominated by high school and former collegiate runners.  This year is no different as Samantha Thierry puts over 500 meters between her and the nearest competition.  Samantha's 21:12 is followed by Tami Burgard and female grandmaster Stephanie Bennett.
