This is the 3rd highest turnout we've ever had for the Nielson. The weather was fine, but a little chilly to start. I wonder what's going to happen when the weather actually gets really nice. This month's most improved runner was Janna Rombocos, who was 2:12 under her handicap. This is becoming a family affair, as Matthew Rombocos was the month's most improved runner in February. Also noteworthy this month is Merideth Brodeur. She has been running the Nielson monthly all through her pregnancy. In March she was far along in the pregancy on Nielson day, walked the race, and delivered a baby girl three days later. She did the Nielson again in April, this time with her baby in her arms. Congratulations Merideth, you looked great out there! Please join us again in May.
