Hanechak Repeats at Chazzy The only real surprise at the 2nd
annual Chazzy B’z road race was the fact that three of the top five finishers were
named Thomas. Home town hero Dave Hanechak toured the familiar Chicopee streets in 27:00
to easily repeat as the winner. Junior Tom Bousquet gave chase for second in 27:58, while
Amherst’s Bob Rosen took 3rd and won the master’s division in 30:25.
Kim Wundt wasn’t quite as familiar with the
local byways, and unfortunately missed a turn while leading the women’s race. Susan
Pease, who negotiated the proper five miles of the course, thus emerged the winner in
35:24 while the errant Ms. Wundt was second in 35:50. Bright sunshine and warm weather,
although tough during the race, made the delicious repast put on by the host
establishment, Chazzy B’z, all the more enjoyable.
