Meet
Missy Foy. In 2000, she was the first person with diabetes to qualify
for the U.S. Olympic marathon trials. She competes in marathons (26.2
mile), and 50-mile and 100-kilometer (62.5 mile) ultramarathons. By
2005, she was ranked ninth in the country among
ultramarathoners, after winning the Umstead (NC) Endurance Run 50
miler in 7:15:06 . She broke the course record by about 20
minutes.
Bobby
is an accomplished XC athlete from Winston Salem, NC, including NCAA
All-American and All-ACC honors. He currently is battling back
from multiple injuries from his days as at NC State.
Joey
currently works at TAF Raleigh and runs for the NCRC/TAF Team. He
typically runs Ultramarathon events, but you will find him at many
shorter events in the area as well. If he isn't running the event,
he is probably volunteering with his faithful NCRC members.
