Former Palisades High track and cross country runner Nicole Campbell has been busy doing what she loves best the last three weeks and her performances have reflected her recent decrease in weekly mileage.
At last Saturday’s Willow Hills Open in Folsom, the 2000 Pali High graduate finished in fifth place with a time of 18:49 for the 5K course – 18 seconds faster than her previous effort on the course in 2011. Her efforts also helped her West Valley Track Club team take first place.
On Oct. 3, Campbell ran the the hilly San Bruno Mountain Park 5K for the first time and placed seventh in 19:10 – her second race in as many weeks. Campbell’s next race is next Saturday’s Aggies Open in Martinez.
