The first race in the USATF New England GP is just 10 days away.  
Which got me thinking and digging out the scrapbook.  Found these results from way back in 1988.
../RaceResults/1988/DHJones-1988.pdf

That was back in the good ole days when results had to be mailed out to every runner. RDs got it so easy now.
I was 19 at the time. Oh so young and foolish I was. I don't recall much from my few races I did post high school,
but most races I went out in like a low 5 minute pace only to crash and burn. 67:58 in 142nd overall. hmmm.

Some pretty good runners back in the day. 47 runners under an hour. Recognize any names?

 
*** Harriers In Action this weekend


A note from the Editor in Chief:

I'll be trying to update this page regurally but it takes time so apoligies if I miss some events or some people.


Won a race? Took an age group? Set a new personal best? Or did you run your first 5k ever? Let me know.
This page is dedicated to reconizing the achievments of all runners, of all abilities.
- Any results, race recaps, photos ... anything you like to share with your fellow Harriers.
Let me know, email me

Week  through Monday April 16, 12

 

B.A.A Boston Marathon

Monday, April 16, 2012

Hopkinton to Boston, MA

 

 

Most everyone fell victim to the unmerciless spike in heat Monday. Most everyone, that is, except two indivuduals that exibited resolves as strong as their legs and lungs because they posted times respectable under ideal conditions. The fact it was far from ideal on Marathon Monday makes these times all the more impressive. With tempaturess at the start easily in the 70s under clear, sunny skies the pavement got hot quick. Even the front-of-packers couldn't reach the Newton Hills before the sun was exacting a toll on most eveyone. Temps on the tarmac had to be in the mid 90's.

So it beats the heck out of me how on Earth 55 year old Charlie Muse from Wilbraham could register a 3:01:50 Monday. That was good enough for 4th in his division which earns him top honors in the B.A.A. leaderboard. Congratulation Charlie on a great run. Equally as good was Hadley's David Martula's 3:47:40 which ranked the 67 year old 6th in his division.

Other top Harriers included Brian Nelson who crusied easily to 2:49:42 213th overall and I believe is the 31 year old's 15th Boston. Steve Folsom also ran his, or close to, PB time with a 2:54:34.

44TH ANNUAL RON HEBERT ROAD RACE
Florence, MA
March 25, 2012

Brian Nelson is on an absolute tear this year. One week after ripping off a 1:13:58 last weekend at the New Bedford Half,
he brought his excellent early season form to the hills of Florence, MA. For anyone yet to make the journey to one of,
if not the, oldest running races in Western Mass its a must do.

After a rather flat early start, the course becomes mostly an uphill test till the midpoint. A brief recovery and an awesome vista-view of Hampshire County are your reward. If at this point in the race you're at all cognizant enough of your surrondings to enjoy the view, do so and do so quickly 'cause the downhills are coming and they're coming at you hard. It a free fall - with a minor speed bump somewhere at mile 7 - all the way to the finish. At least thats how I recall the course went way back in 2006.

35TH ANNUAL NEW BEDFORD HALF MARATHON
USATF New England Grand Prix Race #2
New Bedford, MA
March 18, 2012

Thirteen Harriers made the 110 mile trip to the Whaling City for the 35th running of the New Bedford Half Marathon. Conditions were ideal at 55F and sunny for the 2800 runners lined up waiting for the gun. After the National Anthem and a raucous cheer for Team Hoyt the gun fired and the runners were off. The field quickly strung out over the first few miles up over the rolling hills and into the neighborhoods around mile 4. From there the course turns south for a long gradual downhill into a slight headwind Crowd support was strong near downtown, highlighted by words of encouragement from Pete Stasz. At the 7.5 mile mark the course heads out for a 3.5 mile loop along the ocean. Although there was not a cloud in the sky mother nature was whistling a strong tune right into the face of the runners. At 9.5 miles, near the UMASS Dartmouth Marine Science Building, the course turns north, out of the nasty headwind and back towards the downtown finishing area. One last hill beginning at mile 12 greets all weary runners begging for the finish line. Once the hill is crested, a couple of final turns brings the field to within 0.1 miles of the finish line. One last sprint for glory and its finally over. The large contingent of volunteers handing out finishers medals and water completes the mission.

Brian Nelson was the highest finishing Harrier for the second consecutive Grand Prix race, finishing 49th in 1:13:49 at a 5:39 per mile pace. Following closely behind was Carlos Rivera. Rounding out the Open team was Steve Folsom, Ivan Cordero and Nick Curelop. The Masters team was led by Ed Parrot followed by Mike Lescarbeau. Also scoring for the Masters team were Richard Clark, Seth Roberts and Cliff Bresett. In all it was a good day for the small but determined Harrier squad.

On a final note, former Harrier and Ludlow running stud Kevin Johnson followed-up his season opening victory at the Jones 10 Miler with a bronze medal showing in New Bedford. Kevin scorched the course in 1:07:22 at a 5:09 per mile clip, only 51 seconds behind race winner Matt Pelletier of Rhode Island.

- Mike Lescarbeau

 

SCorked hard to keep the male vets team close atop the Team GP standings with another solid showing, taking 4th best 60+ team.

37TH Annual Holyoke St.Patrick's Day Road Race
Holyoke, MA
March 17, 2012

Ideal weather induces a record turnout (6000+ runners plus walkers) and fast times. The story headline has to go to South Haldey resident Zac Hine with the overall win. This was the first time in 31 years (Chicopee Comp's Dan Dillion 1980) that a Western Mass native has won the overall crown!!!  

Kent Lemme
for the 2nd year  in a row not only scores as the top masters (8th overall 32:45 5:16/mi) but also records a 5th best all time in the 40-49 class. Mike Brouillette took top Holyoke Resident honors for 2012.

The Harriers showed some fine depth in the senior males class with 1st and 2nd div leaders Charlie Muse who continues to roll along with another  impressive result 37:43  (6:05 pace; 54th overall) 
 followed by Norm Fuller 37:49.3 PR 6:05/M; 72nd Ovrl)

33rd #Stu’s 30k RACE

Clinton, MA

Aaron Stone runs a wire-to-wire victory. Yes, Aaron is a SMAC'r, but anytime a Western Mass strider can make the trip to the other side of Quabbin and notch a 'W' that's gonna get props on this page. Yours truly ran in a distant 2nd up until the last 1/2 mile. Ugh. It came down to a sprint with a former WMass'r, Josh 'Flash' Gordon. It was never even close as my quads were absolutely toast from the nasty hill at mile 18. Funny thing is Josh and I battled it out in similar fashion last year. But alas, this year I didn't have the neccesary gap to hold off Josh's strong finshing kick.
My 2010 Stu's recap here.

38th ANNUAL JONES GROUP REALTORS 10 MILE ROAD RACE

USATF New England 2012 Grand Prix Race #1
Amherst, MA

Brian Nelson was our top Harrier this weekend, striding to an impressive 5:32 pace over the hilly 10 mile course - good enough for 32nd in a very deep and talented field.  Western Mass was well represented at the kick off to the 2012 New England Grand Prix.

36 Greater Springfield Harriers toed the line on a sunny and cool but very windy day. Some impressive times indeed this year as nearly 100 runners broke the 60 minute barrier. It took a sub 59 minute effort by
Carlos Rivera, Steve Folsum, Eric Haywood and Mike Brouillete just to crack to the top 90. Kent Lemme’s  5:46 pace effort  came in as 9th best in amongst the ultra-competitive master division.

The trio of Steve O’Neil, Seth Roberts and Ramon Alicea took 1st place in the Males Veteran Team (age 60+) lead by Steve's podium-placing 3rd in the 60+ division .

And big props to Ludlow native and former Springfield Harrier Kevin Johnson  - pulling away in the final mile to edge out 2008 7th place Olympic Marathon Trials ace Nate Jenkins. You can read Nate’s race write-up in his Running Times blog here http://wpblogs.runningtimes.com/blogs/natejenkins/

Fast times weren’t easy to come by on the hilly 10 mile course. Although the dirt road leading up into Shutesburyand wrapping around the picturesque Atkins Reservoir was in the best shape in years, the wind was blowing hard – especially over that dreaded hilly final mile. Man that mile sucks.
