This past Saturday XOHM was a sponsor of the annual Baltimore Running Festival, which has grown to one of the larger running events in the US with 17,500 runners. It was very exciting as we had our first XOHM running team make their debut! And, I might add, our runners did a great job! We are all very proud of them.

-Bryan Mikesh finished the Marathon in 3:10, which was 16th in his age division, 105th overall out of 3,000 runners in the Marathon.

-The XOHM Relay Team of Bryan Platon, Paul Ryder, David Rees and Michael Hollobow finished in 3:25 placing 38th out of almost 700 teams.

-Additionally, Matt Mitchell ran the half marathon, finishing the marathon in 2:25 good for a Top 25 finish!

In addition to our XOHM running team, XOHM was the sponsor of the Connection Zone where runners meet their friends and family after they complete the race. In this area we had 2 XOHM Mobiles positioned demonstrating our products and services and giving runners a chance to check their results and learn more about XOHM.

By 11:30am we had runners lining up 4-5 deep behind the laptops on our cars checking their results. What we soon discovered was that all of the computers in the results tent were down and our XOHM cars were the only way for all of the runners to check their results! So XOHM definitely saved the day for many of the runners who wanted to get to their results, right then, right there. The running festival provided a great venue for us to demo our products and services and gave us a great opportunity to interact with Baltimoreans.
