|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
 Sizzle and Storm It was a summer sizzler this evening! Triple digits for temperatures with heat indices of 107 degrees. 12 brave runners came to Forest Park getting more than they bargained for. Spectacular thunder, lightening and winds came in around 5:30 making it impossible to finish marking the 5K course. What little was marked was washed away with the torrential rain. When the storm cleared there were downed trees, limbs and branches in and around Forest Park. The race began promptly at 6:34 under clear skies and lots of humidity. With his first Summer Sizzler win for the 2006 series was harrier Tom Walsh (18:37). Harrier Paul Fratini (18:51) was only 2 seconds away from the course record. Harrier Peter Fratini (20:04) followed with a third place finish. First senior was harrier Seth Roberts (22:56). First female and first junior was 14 year old Mandy Sullivan (27:26) followed by Kristen Walsh (27:32) and coming in third for the females was 8 year old harrier Julie Carroll (36:44). First veteran was EORC’s Bob Massaro (29:35) This weeks predicted time winner was Don Grant (31:18). Don was only off by 18 seconds. A special thanks to the volunteers of the week, Meghan Lynch, Bruce Kurtz, Brian Goddu, Barbara Bosworth and Mike Lemay and Bill Carroll. Only 4 races left for the 2006 Summer Sizzlers Series! |
