Sunday, January 27
« on: January 27, 2019, 12:25:17 PM »
At the New England Master’s Indoor Track and Field championships, I took third in the 60m and second in the long jump in the M 55-59 age group. At age 59 and 10 months.  The 60 felt like I was jogging, I know I have a lot of room for improvement. But hopefully it was good enough to get an invite to the Penn Relays on a 4 x 100 team a week after I turn 60.  I was happy with my first long jumping in two years.

Congrats OIOMG, and good luck with your indoor campaign as you turn 60 -

Here 1:56 through snow, slush, and mud in open space parks, SW of Denver. Saw 1 coyote - I howled for it but it just ran by - and a total of 15 bighorn sheep in the canyon that I did part of m run in.

64 for the week, plus 1:45 XC skiing on Monday so some decent volume for a geezer.

Racing USA XC champs next weekend, get to see likes of Molly Huddle in the open race.
I'll stick to running, thank you.

Nice OIOMG.  I had a couple of FB friends at the New Balance Grand Prix in Boston.  They ran the mile.  Not sure if they competed in anything else.


16.25K for me.  Longer than I thought with the snow and cold out there.

I was there! (In the stand watching, not competing). Great meet. Can you share who they were?
I'd come see that

Keep us posted

Will do. I ran it 10 years ago on the M50 team. I’m a ‘week after new age group’ kinda Penn Relays guy.

Team Canada members Bill Wells a former co-worker and Jay Brecher.  We ran together a bit at the local running store.  They stayed fast, while I slowed down.  I hated shorter distances under 10K.
