Summer Sizzler #5 - 8K
May 17, 2006

The 70 degree temperature and clear skies welcomed the field of 38 runners for the weekly Summer Sizzler 8K series.

Master harrier Elvin Torres came across the finish line first to finish the 8K course with a fantastic 30:27. Not far behind Elvin was Marco Iannello (31:04) and with a 6:18 per mile pace harrier Mary Ferraro (31:19) was the first female and third overall finisher.

Harrier Joe Fois (31:50) cruised to the finish followed by second female and fifth overall harrier Meg Mathews (32:12).

52 year old harrier Vincente Rojas (33:28) was the first senior finisher with a swift 6:44 per mile pace.

16 year old Kevin Clark (35:10) was the first junior male finisher and it was a one, two, three finish for the harrier women with Master harrier Colleen Cummings finishing third in 35:46.

First veteran finisher EORC’s Bob Massaro (40:27) and 15 year old Ahinoam Pollack (51:23) was the first female junior finisher.

Two predicted time winners this week were Elvin Torres and Gerry Kane, they both guessed within 3 seconds of their actual time.

Don Grant paid the finishing stick holding penalty fee of $20.00 for keeping his stick #13 from the previous weeks’ race. Thanks Don the club will put your fee to good use (buying more sticks).

Volunteers of the week were Ed Carroll and Bruce Kurtz, thanks guys.
