Greenlake must have one of the highest amounts of foot traffic of any park in Washington. People love its environment, distance, and consistency. Only a few races a year occur at this Mecca, but some of the greatest runners in the Seattle area come out for this popular loupe.
For the second year in a row Team Excellence came out to perform its best. This years participants included Jay Chavez, Phil and Amy Crocker, and Elias Roberts.
This was Phil’s first running race ever! He has been working out with Elias Roberts, Excellence Personal Trainer, for 7 months. He has lost 35lb.s, strengthened his body, improved his posture, and now is participating in running. He and his wife, Amy, ran together crossing the finish line at 30:31 seconds. Even his little son’s participated in the kids fun run!
Jay Chavez has also been personal training with Elias Roberts. His body has been transformed into an athletic physique. He has run many races with the team including the Issaquah “Salmon Days” 10k, Phoenix Rock n’ Roll half marathon, and now the Greenlake Lovem’ or Leavem” 5k. With each race it has been either a first time or a personal record. Jay crossed the finish line in 21:36, which equals a pace of 6:58 per mile!
Elias Roberts, trainer and manager of Excellence Health and Fitness, crossed the finish line at 20:03.
