Jonny ran for the first time since September 25th while participating in the Les Eisenhart Invitational. The course is located at the Thomas Worthington High School in Worthington, Ohio. Conditions were low 60’s and breezy.
Jonny got off to a good start and put himself in a position within the top 10 after about 800 meters. He pretty much kept that position thoughout the race and ended up 9th place overall out of 215 runners with a time of 15:51.4 which is his new personal best. The team finished 8th place overall out of 24 teams mostly from Division I schools.

So, what do you do after running a 5K race? You hook up with your buddy who graduated last year and run multiple 800’s with your buddy at the high school track where you just finished your 5K Varsity race. Just for fun!
