The design was to do a 10K race with a rest period before the next part, a 5K, with the total racing time used to determine the winners. Alan was the second oldest male racer this year but his time was much slower due to the weather.

This was another record-breaking year for the Heartland Racewalkers in the Brew to Brew. We had four teams of 5 walkers (exceeding last year’s record of three teams) and also supplied 4 volunteers. Once again we had a combination of veterans and rookies. The rookies were Marcie Reyelts, Pat Durkin and John Anderson, all of whom acquitted themselves in fine pedestrian form. The veterans included Phil Jacobs and Alan Poisner who have now completed 12 and 13, respectively, of the Brew to Brew races with racewalking teams since 2001. As in 2013, Dave Couts, a national champion racewalker, blew away the field, walking at a pace of 8’37” per mile and leading the Walking Shoes team to the second fastest net time since 2001. The weather was favorable this year and the course finished at the old termination point on the north side of the bridge in Lawrence. Our teams beat a large number of running teams in the age- and gender-based running divisions. We appreciated the volunteer help of Peg Armstrong, Pamela Felton, Carol Smith and Kendra Nichols. As in the past we ended up at the Mad Greek restaurant afterwards for a victory celebration. See the NEWS and PICTURES links for more information.
