The ladies of GHS Every Woman Race Team wrapped up the Greenville Spring Training Series this past weekend in style!

Saturday’s race at River Falls in Marietta, SC attracted 37 women to race, 22 in the Pro, Cat 1, 2, 3 field & 17 in Cat 4.  Robin Blackburn & Nikki Zimmerman of GHS Every Woman participated in this race that consisted of 3 laps around a 6 mile course of rolling hills culminating in a 1 mile climb to the finish.  It was a beautiful day and tough race.  Both ladies completed the race and Nikki brought home 6th place!

We’d also like to congratulate and thank Jenn Young of Greenville Women’s Cycling & Jeni Schumacher of Cyclists Against Cancer for competing alongside us!

Sunday was the final race of the series back at Donaldson.  35 Women showed up (19 Pro, 1, 2, 3  & 16 Cat 4) and the officials kept us all together for 4 laps on this 7 mile course.  The first lap was clocked at 23.8 mph and the entire race averaged 21 mph.  It was exciting  for Nikki Zimmerman who brought home GHS Every Woman’s first podium spot of 2010 with a 3rd place finish among Cat 4 women.  She also moved up to 4th overall for the entire series.
