Many alumni have remained very active this summer! Here's the latest:
June 15
Lenny Lucas ('05) and Jon Mccune ('07) participated in the Frickin' Adventure Race at
Frick Park which included 1+ miles of kayaing on the Allegheny River, 8-10 miles
of mountain biking, 5-6 miles of trail running, and orienteering. Jon and Lenny
took 2nd in the Men's Event under the name Big Lead Pipes (they would).

Paul Harvin ('04), Georgia Bullen ('06), Darbi Roberts ('06) and Stefanie Sydlik
('07) competed in the Independence Day Regatta in Philadelphia, PA. Stef took
2nd in the Women's Intermediate Light Single. I am unsure as to the results of
the other three. You can find the results at:

July 15
Bram Whillock ('05) biked 206 miles in a race in Seattle. What race it was, I'm
not sure- but I heard it was awesome :)
July 16
Justin Samuels ('05), Lenny Lucas ('05), Jon McCune ('07), Paul Harvin ('04), and
Paul Raff ('04) competed in the Pittsburgh Triathlon which consisted of 1.5K swim,
40K bike, and 10K run. From what I hear, Justin kicked everyone's butt.

Jon McCune ('07) and Lenny Lucas ('05) - these guys are everywhere- will be

another impressive finish.

August 26
The most important event of the summer- the 2007 Lance Armstrong Livestrong
Challenge. Many crew alumni will be reuniting to bike 100 miles in memory of Jon
Milikowsky ('05). 'Jon's Team' consists of 26 people so far- support them by
donating to the cause and/or joining the team.

Enjoy the rest of your summer! And a belated congratulations to the new alumni of
2007! I hope to see you all on OCTOBER 6, 2007 for the Head of the Ohio Regatta and
Banquet! |
