The Monte Vista Invitational - Home of the Eliminator!

Second EBAL league meet was held at the newly designed course at Shadow Cliffs Park in Pleasanton on Wednesday the 19th.  After a series of harder race courses, the mild hills of Shadow Cliffs were a welcome relief.  The hard work in practice, coupled with perfect weather and a great course, meant that PR's (personal records) were flying fast and furious.  Many Mustangs produced 30, 45 and 60 second PRs.  Even 2 minute faster times were reported!
