Russell Secker To Speak At The Pasta DinnerAfter competing in multi-week stage races across France and Germany, Russell Secker took on the hardest physical and mental challenge of his life – running across the whole of Europe in the 2009 edition of the Trans Europe Footrace. The race format was simple yet implausibly difficult – covering an average of 45 miles a day on foot for 64 consecutive days, with no rest days. Starting from Bari in the south of Italy, 67 ultrarunners from around the world set off to test themselves on a grueling 2-month journey of self-discovery. The race passed through Italy, Austria, Germany, Sweden and Finland before reaching the northernmost land in Europe – North Cape, Norway – 400 miles inside the Arctic Circle. His recently published book Running Across Countries gives first-hand insight into the daunting challenge of becoming a transcontinental runner, one of the toughest and most unforgiving tests of the human body and spirit. Russell will have copies of his book for sale.
The awards are custom made for the TRC Post Oak Lodge Trail Run. They were designed and made in Tulsa, OK. The design is laser cut in steel, lettered, and lacquer finished. The overall male and female award for each race is a 10" tall Post Oak Tree. The Age Group award is a 6" tall Post Oak Tree The Finishers Medallion is a 4" diameter with the Post Oak Tree cut in the center. Because the TRC Post Oak Lodge Trail Race weekend promises to be a unique event in a beautiful location, it's fitting that the awards being designed for these special races are equally unique and impressive. All race awards will be cut from plate steel by Tulsa's own Garden Deva, and use the iconic Post Oak Lodge tree as their design inspiration. The top three male and female finishers in each of the four races will receive a custom 10" Overall Award, As well, the top three male and female age group finishers in each of the four races will receive a 6" version of the Post Oak Lodge tree award. But the awards are not just for the fastest runners: All finishers in all four races will receive a custom award that can be proudly displayed or used as a paperweight or coaster. And last, but certainly not least, all runners that "Do a Double" by completing the Marathon on Saturday and one on the three Sunday races will receive a unique "Doubler" award. These awards are sure to be highly-valued as a tangible memory of the TRC Post Oak Lodge Trail Races. Check back with this site in early January 2010 and see the actual awards you're running for!
