2025 Ash Creek Score-O

Everyone seemed to have had a lot of fun at the Ash Creek event despite the wet conditions, and some runners even enjoyed the challenge of dealing with steep hills. The timed score-O courses were much steeper than normal and our depleted competitors readily gobbled up most of the food and drinks at the post-event social. 

For the 120-minute course, Ali Crocker got all 1600 points with a 13-mile run. Second and third placings went to Dan Simon and John Crowther who tied in points (1390) but were a minute apart in their finish times.

For the 60-minute course, Sadie and Erik Scharffenberg placed first with 460 points and a fast finish to avoid more than one minute of time penalties. Second and third place went to the two Boyles family teams. 

The Kidd-O course was well used by the Boyles, Crocker, and Lobingier families.

Thanks also to the Portland Public Schools for the use of the Smith Sports Fields as our event center.  And a big thanks to Kelly Whitty, Laura Weller, and Katie/Mike/Patti Cottrell for helping us pack up the event center when it was time to leave.
