Snowstorm Classic #12 - 10K
February 19, 2000

A True Snowstorm Classic

A light dusting of snow greeted the Snowstorm Classic faithful, which topped off last night’s storm and made the course that much more slippery.  Most of the runners were treated to a road slush shower, courtesy of the passing motorists, at some point during the race. As evidenced by the times, it was a true Snowstorm Classic. How Paul Fratini managed to break forty minutes for the 10K course will remain a mystery commensurate with Stonehenge and the latest Elvis sightings, but the speedy 34 year old Harrier skidded to a 39:10 clocking to win his second race of the year.  Steve O’Neil slid into 2nd with a 40:42 while Mike Gauvin took 3rd in 40:45. Among the women, Dawn Roberts won her fourth in a row, and sixth of the millennium, with a 55:23 effort, followed by Harrier teammates Mary Misiaszek (56:05) and Ellen Bellicchi (59:25). Next Saturday the 1999-2000 Snowstorm Classic season concludes with the final race contested on the 5K course.
