CONGRATULATIONS
TO ALL OF THE PARTICIPANTS! |

The World's Longest Oceanfront Beach Run - 35 Miles on the Beach
from Atlantic Beach south to the Jetty at
the St Augustine Inlet. |
| |
| Performance Jetty-2 Jetty Ultra & Relay --
3/19/2011 |
| THANK YOU TO ALL OF
OUR WONDERFUL VOLUNTEER RACE OFFICIALS: Tracy,
Mark, Pat, John, Barbara, Don, Chris, Lynn, Nate and Johanna, who spend the
entire day monitoring the runners and bikers as they progressed down 35
miles of beach. Without the generosity of these volunteers, this race could
not exist. |
| CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL
OF OUR ADVENTUROUS RUNNERS AND CYCLISTS! Both solo
winners travelled with a contingent of friends from their home areas.
Overall Male solo winner was BRADFORD LOMBARDI, who traveled from Stuart,
Florida to compete. ISRAEL SOSA drove up from Miami to take second place in
the division. The overall Female solo winner was HEATHER FORSTER from
Everett, Canada. Canadian runner LISA GAGNE enjoyed getting out of the cold
and snow to take second place for the women's division. This year, Relay
Teams took the first two finishing positions -- and both were composed of
sailors from the US Navy Destroyer, Farragut. TEAM INTIMIDATORS lived
up to their name and captured first place by leading almost the entire race.
Their shipmates on TEAM FULL SPEED worked at closing the small gap in their
times, but had to accept being second place on this day. Male solo winner
BRADFORD LOMBARDI ran well enough to be the third overall finisher, getting
to the finish line before the third team could reach it. In the 2/3-Person
relay division, TEAM BEACH GOATS took the first position, just two seconds
ahead of TEAM WRECKED'EM, after the two teams had traded positions for the
entire race. For the first time since we have
included a Bike Division, it was won by a female cyclist, TRISHA BAILEY, who
raced fast and smooth throughout the entire distance. Her time of 3:38:21,
sets a new Bike Division record, better than any previous year -- take note,
guys...
March 19th dawned with near-perfect weather for a beach
race -- clear skies, temperature about 55-60 degrees, with a prediction for
light winds from the northwest, going to northeast. The beach conditions at
the start were looking better than some previous years, though the race
began just after high tide, so that the racers would have the best beach
conditions late in the race. The J2J race started about 8:40am, going north
for about 2.5 miles before turning south for the final 32.5 miles to the St.
Augustine Inlet. As is normal, the surface was a challenge from the
beginning. While beach surface conditions were improving during the day, the
beach, as always, provides its own challenges throughout the race. Winter
storms had changed portions of the beach, leaving some flatter than usual
and some with more slant and cocina shells.
If you have photos from this year's Jetty-2-Jetty
race, please send some to me at
RD@PerformanceMultisports.com,
and I will be happy to post them on our Results page below. After looking
quickly at next year's tides, we may be seeing a later date for
Jetty-2-Jetty Ultra & Relay in 2012. Stay tuned by

Jetty-2-Jetty Ultra & Relay -- 1/16/2010
After a couple weeks of uncharacteristic freezing
weather, the weather on race day was raining and cool, and when the rains
stopped, it remained overcast, with a slight wind
that came from the south by the end of the race. The conditions at the
start were near high tide so that the racers would have the best beach
conditions late in the race. The J2J race started about 8:30am, and the surface was
a challenge
from the beginning. While beach surface conditions were
improving during the day, the beach, as always, provided varying
challenges throughout the race. As is normal, winter storms had changed
portions of the beach, leaving some flatter than usual and some with more cocina shells. Runners reported seeing many starfish, conch shells, sand
dollars, and other unusual sea creatures all along the course.
Running steadily from start to finish, Daniel Mabie was the first solo
runner to finish, in a time of 6:04 -- a finish very close to his 2nd
place time last year and the year before. This was his year to take the
win! Coming in Second in the solo men's division was Michael Cowart in
6:17. Using this a a training run for Marathon Des Sables, Jennifer
Vogel was
the first solo woman runner to finish, and was also second solo overall in
a time of 6:05, followed by Katie Bombly in 6:25 in her first J2J Ultra.
In this fifth year that
included relay teams, runners on teams dominated and took the first
nine finishing
positions, showing the strength of teamwork in this long distance race.
Times for some teams and individual runners showed faster times in past
years, in spite of the slight headwind. Team Tenacious Turtles improved their own
finish time by another seven minutes and they seem to have solidified a
tradition of holding onto Second Place Overall!
After leading for much of the first half of the race, Team Tenacious
Turtles was passed by Team Brew Crew, who headed to a first
place finish in 3 hours 59 minutes, an improvement of about 17 minutes over
their first place finish last
year.
CONGRATULATIONS to
all of those who came out to compete and test yourselves against the
elements and the beach. THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR
WONDERFUL VOLUNTEER RACE OFFICIALS (Tracy, Pat, John, Mark, Chris, Lynne,
Valerie, Ken, Jason), without whom we would not have a race like the
Performance Jetty-2-Jetty Ultra and Relay. We are already looking at the
tides for 2011, and will be starting a bit later in relation to the point of
high tide. We look forward to seeing you again in 2011.

you or your support crew have digital photos, please

Performance Jetty-2-Jetty Ultramarathon & Team
Relay - Saturday, 2/28/09
|
The World's Longest Beach Run - 35 Miles on the Beach
from Atlantic Beach to the Jetty at
the St Augustine Inlet.
|
|
If
you or your support crew have digital photos, please
email them to us and we will post some of them on this page with the results
below. |

Weather was sunny and partly cloudy, with a wind
that came from the south early in the race. The conditions on the beach were
good at the start in Atlantic Beach; the race began near high tide so that
participants would be able to enjoy lower tide conditions toward the final
hours of the race. The J2J race started
at 9:07am, with a beach surface was relatively flat even
from the beginning. While beach surface conditions were
improving during the day, the beach, as always, provided varying
challenges throughout the race. As is normal, winter storms had changed
portions of the beach, leaving some areas flatter than usual and some with more
cocina shells.
In this fourth year that
included relay teams, runners on teams won the first two finishing
positions, showing the strength of teamwork in this long distance race.
Times for some teams and individual runners showed faster times this year,
in spite of the headwind. Team Brew Crew improved over last year's time by
almost five minutes!
After trading the lead during parts of the first half of the race, Team Brew
Crew headed to a first
place finish in 4:16:00. Running steadily from
start to finish, Andy Nicol came from Vancouver, BC, Canada to be the first solo
runner to finish, in a time of 4:53:05 -- once again, a finish about 38
minutes faster than last year's solo first place. Loretta Haycook and
Lesley Seaton ran together all the way to tie for
the first solo woman runner to finish, in
a time of 6:39:25, followed by Maureen O'Sullivan in 7:03:11.
For the second time, a BIKE Division was included
in J2J,
with six cyclists at the starting line. This year, the 35 miles of beach
was so challenging on a bike that two of the female cyclists decided to drop out
at about the halfway point at Mickler's Landing. Even by the first
checkpoint, some of the Teams were ahead of some of the bikes in the cyclo-cross
type conditions, in which the riders spent some of their time pushing
their bikes when they encountered soft sections on the beach. At other
times, they were rolling well, especially as the tide was getting lower
throughout the day. After a challenging day in and out of the saddle, the
Bike Division was won by Steve Szilagyi in 4:45:48, just ahead of Andy
Stenson. The first female bike finisher (ever) was Marykay Hall, who
had actually led all the men at times.
Congratulations to all of the participants in our
Performance Jetty-2-Jetty Ultra in 2009.

Performance Jetty-2-Jetty Ultramarathon & Team
Relay - Saturday, 3/22/08
|
|
The World's Longest Beach Run - 35 Miles on the Beach
from Atlantic Beach south to the Jetty at
the St Augustine Inlet. Weather was cool and overcast, with a slight wind
that came from the south by the end of the race. The conditions at the
start were better than usual, though the race began near high tide. The J2J race started
at 9:00am, close to high tide, yet the surface was relatively flat even
from the beginning. While beach surface conditions were
improving during the day, the beach, as always, provided varying
challenges throughout the race. As is normal, winter storms had changed
portions of the beach, leaving some flatter than usual and some with more
cocina shells. Runners reported seeing many starfish, conch shells, sand
dollars, and other unusual sea creatures all along the course. In some
areas, erosion had eaten away at the dunes near some homes, leaving small
"cliffs" from the water to the houses above.
In this third year that
included relay teams, runners on teams won the first five finishing
positions, showing the strength of teamwork in this long distance race.
Times for many teams and individual runners showed faster times in 2008,
in spite of the slight headwind. Team Tenacious Turtles improved their own
finish time by a whopping 12 minutes!
After leading for much of the first half of the race, Team Tenacious
Turtles was passed by Team Brew Crew, who headed to a first
place finish in 4:20:25, an improvement of about 10 minutes over last
year's first finishers. Running steadily from
start to finish, Chris Maples was the first solo
runner to finish, in a time of 5:31:37 -- once again, a finish almost 10
minutes faster than last year's 5:40:10 solo first place. Lorna Brown was
the first solo woman runner to finish, and was also third solo overall in
a time of 6:11:10, followed by Loretta Haycook in 6:21:20, which is almost
10 minutes better than her fastest previous J2J.
For the first time, a BIKE Division was added to J2J,
with three cyclists at the starting line. This year, the 35 miles of beach
was so challenging on a bike that one of the cyclists decided to drop out
at about the halfway point at Mickler's Landing. Even by the first
checkpoint, some of the Teams were ahead of some of the bikes in the cyclo-cross
type conditions, in which the riders spent some of their time pushing
their bikes when they encountered soft sections on the beach. At other
times, they were rolling well, especially as the tide was getting lower
throughout the day. After a challenging day in and out of the saddle, the
Bike Division was won by Andy Stenson, by about 20 minutes over his
teammate, Clark Schaffer, who announced that he was already planning to
return to take on the Jetty-2-Jetty Ultra in 2009.
