THANK YOU AND CONGRATS to everyone who came out to the Dothan 6 hour Run in the record-breaking heat! We had a great showing of 18 runners and many wonderful spectators & volunteers for this inaugural event!
The trail turned out to be exactly 3.33 miles long, which worked out perfectly for people who wanted to run a marathon (8 laps = 26.64) or half marathon (4 laps = 13.32) - or just challenge themselves to run as far as they could go.
Below are the results...runners with a * next to their names ran this as a double with Running for the Bay in FL the day before! (Note that once the 6-hour limit had been reached, runners were allowed to finish the lap they were on; this is why some times are slightly over 6 hours.)

Last but not least, many thanks to my parents Linda and Roy for flying out from Oregon to help us out as volunteers, and to the Dothan Runners' Club for the fantastic support & course markings, and to Westgate Park for the beautiful, well-maintained trail! Hope everyone had as much fun as I did :)
