Some of the top local area masters competed in a big 5k competition in New York Sunday morning. Among the notables on the team were Sean Wade, Gerardo Mora, and Tom King. Sean was the top National Masters champion at 14:52. Gerardo got a master's PR at 16:17. Tom King did well with a 16:34 which I believe should be a top time for him. Congratulations to these guys for representing the Houston area well.

Bill: I have been meaning to ask this...exactly WHY do you do the jump rope thing? What is it helping with?
BJ- you post on here everyday, he jump ropes. Neither need explanation. Or both. Carry on.
huh? i just would like to know if its helping strengthen ... or if he feels like its helping. i can ask a question if i feel like it right? jeez.
bill is it ok if i ask a question? :O)
i am the real anonymous so listen.
june u have the righg & actually good question. it helps build speed. Run on ur fore foot . u teach ur legs to bounce and spend as little time on the ground. less contact time and elasticity. strengthens ur calf. it mimics running if u do it one leg at a time instead two legs.
June,
I think Anon answered your question better than I could have put it. And don't worry, you are welcome here anytime!
Anon1,
