GUYS NIGHT

It was a warm day and a cool front was heading in, but first the fierce storms came through the state with tornado warnings until 8:00 p.m. The 12 brave souls who showed up for tonight’s race were all men. The course was marked earlier in the day but the torrential rains washed away any flour markings that Steve O’Neil had provided. The course was wet and muddy so it looked like no records would be broken.

Harrier Joe Fois was the first one to emerge from the cross country course with a winning time of 20:26 followed by first junior Kevin Clark (20:30) and coming in third was first senior harrier Steve O’Neil (22:06). First master was Doug Cummings (24:18) who helped a first time course runner find his way through the unmarked course. First veteran was SMACer Don Grant (36:43).

Tonight’s predicted time winner was Steve O’Neil, Steve was off by only 4 seconds

A special thank you to Steve O’Neil, Barbara Bosworth, Pete Stasz and Bruce Kurtz for helping out with so many aspects of this evening’s race.
