Qualchan Race Results Are IN!!

This Sunday, participants from all levels of running ability race the grueling 12K Qualchan XC, or, as it is called by insiders, “The Godawful Race.” Held at Spokane’s High Drive, notorious for its steep hills, overhanging trees, mud pits, and roots/rocks that trip many an unsuspecting runner, the strenuous Qualchan embodies true “cross-country” running. An additional challenge is the single-person wide trail throughout the entire race (except for the hundred meter asphalt finish). According to one runner, it is “the toughest race around here.”

As one of the smaller races of the Bloomsday Race Series, the Qualchan received a great turnout of 42 racers compared to previous years of only around 20 racers. Because of the Qualchan’s relatively small size, there are only two categories. Good job to our first place male Chris Morlan, with a 7-minute-mile average, who completed with a time of 52:25, as well as our first place female Rachel Bucklin who completed with a time of 1:03:07.

Congratulations for toughing out this killer race, for all those that participated!
