Nice cool conditions made for several fast times today, with ten runners clocking sub-20:00. Brent Leighton finished nearly eighty seconds ahead of the field, and Charlie Salmond picked up 2nd place one half-minute in front of Dartmouth freshman Nathan Senge. John Loiselle closed out his summer 5K season with a nice fourth place finish, shaving twenty seconds off his speedy time from last week's race. And a few places down, a hard-fought race between between junior Jason Lessard and master Peter Wojtas ended in a statistical dead heat.
Donna LeBlanc won the ladies' prize, and Evelyn Dolan won the random draw T-shirt. Thank you to this week's many volunteers.
... Anybody know when Sydney 2000 begins?
