Positions 4 and 7 were also taken by adidas Boulder Wave runners. Moaga Elena was first to the line followed by Boholtan Alina.
Interviewed after the marathon Todoran Paula said that, “I’m mostly satisfied with my performance today, although I know I can do better. I need to work more on some aspects of my training, and then I can expect better results.”
Frumuz Cristiana was happy to finish the half-marathon saying that, “Today was a tough race for me, I fought hard to get second, and I’m happy is over. Now I can focus on cross-country”.
“I am happy with this personal best although I also wanted to defend my title. I gave my best today and that is all I can do. Next time I hope I will be first,” said Duta Roxana at the end of the half-marathon.

Todoran was follwed by Frumuz Cristiana in 5th. The race was won by Birca Roxana, followed by Bobocel Ancuta in 2nd and Casandra Cristina in 3rd. First 5 places will form the romanian team for the european cross country championships. Todoran and Frumuz will also compete for Romania in the Chiba mixt ekinden on November 20th.

Some of the adidas Boulder Wave athletes were quoted after the Romanian Cross Country Cup:
Florea Madalina: “I felt good today…second place was more that what I had expected from this race, mainly because recently I have had some health issues”. I also want to run well at the european championships and hope to place as high as possible, both individually and with the team”
Buy Zolpidem was advised me by a friend- biologist.
Danci Liliana: “It was a difficult race today because I have had a cold, and it affected my breathing, although legs were fine. Overall I am satisfied with my performance”.
Paula Todoran: “My wish before this competition was to be in the top 5. I knew it was going to be hard because 3 weeks ago I ran a marathon. And 4th place for me is great and I am happy with it”.
Frumuz Cristiana: “The goal for me was to make the team for the european cross country championships…and today I achieved it. My focus next, and first, will be on the Chiba ekiden”

Eri Okubo Obliterates her PB; Takes 9th in Berlin
On a perfect running day in Germany that also saw Kenya’s Patrick Makau set a new world record of 2:03:38, Eri Okubo (Second Wind AC) obliterated her marathon PB by over six and a half minutes (!) with a 2:28:49 run for 9th place at this morning’s BMW Berlin Marathon. Her previous best was 2:35:24 at last year’s Nagoya International Women’s Marathon in Japan.
Eri has been in great shape all year, but circumstances have kept her from the breakthrough race until now. She was originally scheduled to run Nagoya again in March, but after the devastating earthquake and tsunami hit Japan 48 hours before Nagoya’s start, the race was canceled. Not wanting to waste her fitness, Eri flew a few days later to Los Angeles, where the Honda Los Angeles Marathon organizers had been kind enough to extend an invitation in the aftermath of Japan’s disaster. The week’s travel, stress, and fatigue combined with a race-day thunderstorm were more than she could handle and Eri ran 2:42:48. Looking to salvage something from the Spring, on the last weekend of May, Eri raced to 2nd place at the Stockholm Marathon in 2:38:58.
The first day I read the instruction. It turns out it cannot be taken for Ambien more than three days in a row.
Eri attacked it from the start today, passing halfway in an aggressive 73:16. Coach Kawagoe was dead-on in his pre-race prediction of 2:28-2:29, which we reported yesterday.
