2014 - Men's Penn Relays Race Walks
The 2014 Men's Penn Relays race walk was shaping up to be one of the deepest fields in a long time, but unfortunately we had four scratches at the last minute. With heavy downpours the night before, we lucked out and had picture perfect weather for the start of the race. Sunny, cool, and with little wind, the small field hit the track hard. With three men under 45:00, the race was a success.
Emerson Hernandex and Kenny Perez duking it out early.
