SUMMER SIZZLER #2 – 5K

APRIL 26, 2006

The tradition continues… starting the race on time.

Another sunny race day with temperatures in the low 60’s but the southwest wind of 14 m.p.h. made the air feel cooler.

  Excitement was also in the air today as GIRL POWER PREVAILED with Harrier women Mary Ferraro (20:38) and Meg Mathews (20:47) outrunning the men by finishing first and second overall on the tough cross country course.

Breezing on the up hill finish was first male and third place finisher Harrier master Billy Rowe (20:57).

More excitement was to follow as the 61 year old age record previously held by Doug Blanchard (22:52) was smashed by second place male finisher and SMAC veteran Peter Gagarin (21:36).

SMAC member Phil Bricker (22:12) and Maura McDonald (23:49) breathlessly and confidently finished third for the men and women.

  A special thank you to the volunteers of the week, Brian Goddu, Colleen Cummings, Brian Gibbons and Bruce Kurtz.
