41st Annual Fischang-Cicchetti Memorial Race 5-Mile

Mike and I ran this one this morning in Waterbury. This race is 41 years old. I had never heard of it. Mike got 42 flat and I got 38 flat.

Here's a pic of the 169 gang ( which of course yours truly missed :-(  )

Robyn Errickson is 3rd from the left. She and I pooled to the race (she's my neighbor). Will Sanders averaged 2 seconds quicker than a 5 minute pace (yes, 4:58). Smashed the course record by 2 minutes.

"Movember" 5K

Larry Regan crushed this 1st annual bridge run. He placed 3rd in his division with a time of 21:14 (3rd out of 37 in his division). Karen Prado was 13th female out of 558 women and 1st out of 57 in her division. Here is a link to the full results.

Ghost Run

Tray, Mike and Lee ran this one. Big turnout. So big, they ran out of bibs. Neil Mandel ran w/o a bib. Hopefully he told them his time and will be counted. 

Mike did 2:02, about 8 minutes quicker than last year. Lee wanted sub-1:50 but got 1:55. Tray and he ran together from maybe mile 8 to 10. She got 1:56. Larry ran 1:38, a few minutes slower than last time.

This is a 60+ race but they gave Lee a 1st in the 70+ anyway. Yay! His 4th whistle.
