Today's WSC 5K had brand new course records for the season across the board! First Male, First Female, First Junior, First Senior, First Veteran, basically EVERYONE
got a course PR today for the season! Was it because of favorable weather? Was there a tail wind the entire way? Were the planets in perfect alignment? Nope! It was a
NEW course! Actually, it was the old course! Joe and Pat re-wheeled the loop last week to put out new markers and when they came upon the finish that we've been using
for a number of years now, they looked at each other and realized they were short! So they kept wheeling, and as they clicked out 5000 meters, they noticed this
obscure marking on the curb that has weathered many New England winters re-affirming that the ghosts of CMS past had been by this way before and had marked the
official finish. Somehow though, similar to the story that changes with each subsequent retelling, our finish line had been moved up about 40 meters. You can imagine
the runners surprise as they were kicking in to the finish and wondering what we were doing further up the road! Note: The next two weeks we will be looking for help at the 5k's if anyone is available. |
