2009 TCRS #5 Results


Loma Alta ~6.3? miles
May 10th, 2009
104 Finishers: 72 men, 32 women

While maybe not as prominent a Marin peak as a Tamalpais or a Burdell, Loma Alta nonetheless presents a pretty good climb. TCRS has visited its hillsides a few times over the years, and our May edition was introduced to a new route to the top, courtesy of Steve Shapiro. We were graced with a lovely spring morning, a bit warm but not oppressive, and the vistas from the ridgetops were magnificent. Steve's blueprint did include a lengthy stretch of extreme rise, but after all, we were climbing Loma Alta, and our descent was more directly down the main fire road. Mark McManus put a pretty good thumping on a very strong field, and Liz Shortino continued her torrid season with a big win. It was again one of those mornings when many lingered long after the run to savor our efforts and our special community, and to consider that, just like that, the 2009 season is already half-over . - Jim Myers
