Snowstorm Classic #6 - 10K
January 8, 2000

Snowless Snowstorms Continue

       The Snowstorm Classics moved past January 8th with nary a snowflake in sight and two runners on opposite ends of the age spectrum took advantage of the dry roads and sunny skies to set new records.

        Zofia Turosz had the easier task as the Hartford Track Club dynamo became the first 61 year woman to finish the 10K Forest Park course, automatically establishing a new age record. However Zofia did more then plug a gap in the record books. Her 49:17 clocking is the fastest time for any woman over sixty, including her own 60 year old record set last year. She now holds five records on the 10K course and eleven Snowstorm Classic age records overall.

        Jesse Regnier is nearly half a century younger and the speedy youngster is wasting no time with his own collection of age records. The Fast Feet Track Club 12 year old scampered over the 10,000 meters in 41:29 handily erasing the 42:54 standard set by SMACer Louis Parrot way back in 1987. Jesse now has two consecutive 10K marks to go with the 5K record he set earlier this season.

        Sandu Rebenciuc, representing the Army team, won the race with a 35:46 workout, followed by first master Steve O’Neil in 36:25 and first junior Tom Bousquet in 36:46.

        Dawn Roberts won her first Snowstorm Classic this season with a steady 45:52 effort. The Harrier mainstay is second among the women for most Snowstorm Classic victories. Race director Mary Misiaszek was 2nd in 48:16 followed by Zofia.
