UBC
Open Cross-Country Running Race, Vancouver
Lisa Labrecque placed 7th in the 4km at the UBC XC Open in
Vancouver this weekend, in a time of 14:14. Lisa made a bad
guess regarding spike length on the muddy course and ended
up spinning her wheels for 4 kilometres.
She's home for two days of work and training, then flies to
Yokohama, Japan on Wednesday morning - the Ekiden race is
on Sunday (her birthday).
