Title: Running of the Leopards 5K Post by: Bill Cobler on March 28, 2010, 12:17:11 pm Thanks to everyone that came and made the race a huge success again this year. We had a very strong field with many new PR's and course records set, with cash paid out to top winners. My vision is to make this a must do race each year for all levels. However, I want the best of the best to come and test where they really stack up as a runner. We had a very strong field again this year, Top Masters came, some of the fastest women were running, and the male field was good but could be much better. We all train hard for many reasons and goals. Just because you can't be in the money or know you are not going to win your age should not deter you from racing in a stacked field. I want to set up this scenario so you don't have to travel long distances to compete against the best. We have many runners that would compete nationally in many age groups. We can create our own Bloomsday, Carlsbad, Peach Tree, maybe not at that level now but in the future. I would love to have any race in Utah that could bring in the worlds best year after year. So if you chose not to run this year, please put us on your list for next year.
