Colony High graduate runner-up in Crow Pass Crossing

EAGLE RIVER — Eric Strabel, a graduate of Colony High School, finished second in the Crow Pass Crossing on Saturday.

Even though Strabel brok his own three-year old record in the grueling event that sends rugged mountain runners 24 miles from Girdwood to the Eagle River Nature Center, the former Colony running standout had to settle for second place.

Strabel finished the run in 2 hours, 58 minutes and 30 seconds, 79 seconds behind the winner, Geoff Roes.

Strabel’s previous record was 3:05:18, set in 2006.
