Speedy January Racing...

Doesn't seem that the "off season" has affected the One2Tri Racing team as it was an exciting day of running for the squad!  Congratulations to all the team members that raced fast today, despite the cold!

Tom Patch, Michael Beacham, Greg Shore and Keith Mrocheck rocked the Charlotte Running Company Trail Race - put on by our amazing Sponsor- at the US National White Water Center in Charlotte.

Greg ran the 4-miler and took a 1st place age group win (M 20-24) with a time of 27:18!
Congrats to Michael for a top 25 overall place in the 9-mile race with an impressive trail-run time of 1:20:45!




Tom ran the 13-miler and also came home with a 1st place age group win (M 50-54) in an impressive 1:55:20!










A special congrats to Keith who ran the 9-miler in 1:01:24 and took home a 1st place OVERALL victory!  Now that's some fast trail running!













Coach Nicole snuck in a cool 4th place female in the Calhoun's Ten-Miler with a 1:14:27 in the home of her Alma Mater, Knoxville, TN!  Not bad for a "training run"!  

This is just a glimpse in to what the season holds for the team!  Stay tuned for many more, super fast races this season and lots of victories to come!

First One2Tri Racing Team Member Event of 2011!

Congratulations to Tom Patch for completing the Freedom Park New Year's Even 24-Hour Ultra Run in Morgonton, NC!!

Tom is One2Tri Racing's resident ultra runner that set out to enjoy the day and his fitness during this 24 hour race. Each lap of the course was .98 miles and the entire surface was asphalt with a few small inclines on the loop. Tom's goal was to average a 12:00 pace.  Despite troubles with blisters, a calf tweak and some right foot tendinitis, Tom managed ran 78.4 (!) miles in 24-hours.

You may wonder what an endurance athlete like Tom might eat during a 24-hour running event! Here's Tom's meal plan: 3 slices of pizza, a hamburger, a cheeseburger, Doritos, cookies, pecan bars, raisin bars, potatoes, potato chips, PB&J, and salted peanuts! Sounds like that would give Michael Phelps' calorie intake a run for its money.

The most amazing part of all is that Tom managed with only a 30-45 min nap at 1:15am and a 30 minute break at 6:00am - in 24 hours! 

Tom's accommodations were likely a little less "luxurious" 
than most people may envision on New Year's Eve!

At the finish line; 24-hour clock finally showing "0"
Congrats Tom on a phenomenal job!
