Ken and Chris have been racing almost every weekend and for this race Ingrid joined them. 14. Ken DeVries – 20:39, 65. Chris DeVries 25:32, 85. Ingrid DeVries 28:57.

12/14 The John Jay Patriots open their indoor season on Wednesday, Dec. 14 at the Kick-Off Meet to be held at RCC. Coach Lee reports that both teams are large with about 80 girls and 55 boys at practice every day. I will report any results that I can come up with.

12/12 MAC MEET at the ARMORY: John Brooks and I traveled down to the Armory on Sunday, Dec. 11 to run in the MAC open and masters meet. Also met Bart Sessa, Sean Rice and Beth Zebuth from the Running School crew down there. John is just getting back into shape after having had shoulder surgery at the end of the summer. He had torn the shoulder coming out of the blocks running a 55 meter dash so he opted to run a cautious 400 meter race instead of something shorter. He took first in the 50-59 age group in a time of 59.86. Bart, Sean, Beth and I all ran the 1500. Sean started running seriously at camp last summer for the first time in years and has not let up since. His goal was to run a time equivalent to sub 5:00 for a mile and his time of 4:35.06 accomplished that. Beth ran an excellent 5:30.94, which was really superb because she is really more of a 400/800 meter runner. Bart has been running most days with his track kids and is slowly working his way back to running shape. He was pretty happy with his 5:35.06. I got a chance to run in a race with 8 guys all over 40, one of whom I was told is the world age group record holder for the 55-59 age group in a couple of track events. He won. The good news is he didn't lap me on the 200 meter track. It was close but I held him off. 🙂 Considering this was my first track race in two years I was pleased with my time of 5:09.68.

12/10 New Balance Winter Carnival: The college indoor track season has opened. The dynamic Patriot duo of Erin Ballard and Laura McCloskey opened the season in style. At the New Balance Winter Carnival held at the Reggie Lewis Center in Boston, Erin won the 800 meter in a time of 2:21.53. Not to be outdone, Laura placed first in the 1000 meter race in 3:02.32. Great way to start the season ladies! Congrats!!

K of C Holiday Run – 5 Mile, 12/4/2005 Full results are now on the MHRRC website
A day that looked like it might be a tough day to run turned into an almost perfect day for the first Sunday in December. The snow stopped, the roads were clear and there was no wind. It was a little chilly (about 29 degrees) — two layers of dryfit shirts, gloves and a hat turned out to be perfect. The big decision was what to wear on the legs. Many runners went with bare legs and I didn't hear anyone say it was a bad decision. There were a number of outstanding performances, the most outstanding being Marisa Hanson going under 29 minutes for the first time at the K of C race, breaking her own course record in the process. Her time of 28:44 took her to a 3rd place finish overall behind Mike Slinskey (26:31) and Chris Collins(27:03). Other runners from the Masters Training group and the John Jay XC/track family include: 9. Kevin Dollard (30:56) 1st 50-59, 11. Steve Perks (31:49) 2nd 50-59, 16. Jeff Nero (32:20) 3rd 50-59, 17. Chris Wimmers (32:25) 3rd 30-39, 19. Gil Anderson (32:41), 20. Vince Veltre (32:51), 25. Ken DeVries (34:07), 26. Pat DeHaven (34:08), 43. Lori Casia-Decker (37:42), 70. Camille Vassari (41:49), 75. Judy Proal (42:17) 1st 50-59, 80. Chris DeVries (43:04) 2nd 50-59, 89. Charlie Shirk (44:01)

11/30 The MHRRC Turkey Trot — some thoughts and results. The best thing about the Turkey Trot, besides the obvious calorie burn before the big meal, is the reunion atmoshpere. College kids home for the holidays, relatives in town to spend the day with family, parents of youngsters looking to run the mile and weekend warriors all show up for a chance to hit the roads. The weather played a little havoc on the race schedule for the day. The 25K was re-routed to 3 laps of the 5 mile course and the kids one mile was cancelled. Both decisions were made in the interest of safety. My daughter, Sarah, was in from Boston and she and I both ran the 5 mile race. John Jay alumni included the running McCloskey family with Chris, Kelly, Laura, Julie, Kyle and Claire (mom) all participating. Other Patriots at the race were Paul Cwiakala, Sally Briggs, Erin Ballard and Hakon DeVries. Hakon's parents, Ken and Chris also ran, although I can't find Chris listed in the results. Marissa Vassari and her mom, Camile Vassari, fresh off their NYC Marathon, ran the 25K. Of course there were lots of runners from this summers Masters Training Group. They continue to dominate the age group awards.

11/17 Harrisburg Marathon Results: On Sunday, November 13 Conni Grace and Wayne McDaniel ran the Harrisburg Marathon. Conni ran a PR of 3:03:28, this despite losing some time at the start and having to make two short pit stops along the way. Wayne had been sick for a couple of days before the race, felt good that morning and decided to give it a shot. Being sick caught up with him during the second half of the race and he finished over three hours (3:12:57) for the first time in about 15 marathons.

10/17 Master's Training Group at USATF National Masters 5K XC Championhips in Saratoga: Marisa Hanson, Kieran Stack and I traveled up to Saratoga on Sunday to race in this highly competitive event. For the women there is one race for all the women 40 and over. In the men's division they have three separate races, 40-49, 50-59 and 60+. In the women's race Marisa was involved in an incredible two person battle with a world class professional runner. (Yes, she runs for a living.) For the first 2.5 miles they were never more than 2 or 3 strides apart. Over the last 1/2 mile the woman gained a little on Marisa and they ended up finishing 10 seconds apart in 17:12 and 17:22. Marisa's time was 26 seconds faster than she had run last year to win the race. The next finisher was 1 minute 27 seconds behind Marisa. In the men's 40-49 race Kieran finished 13th in an excellent time of 16:23. In the men's 50-59 yours truly had his butt handed to him, finishing 39th out of the 64 competitors in the race with a time of 18:57. My only consolation is that next year I'll be in the 60+ race where my time would have been second, ok, third if you count the 59 year old that beat me in the 50-59 race. It was great fun. To check out full results and age graded times go to finishright.com

At the Taco Juan 5 mile race in Woodstock, Bonnie Nussbickel was the first woman in an excellent time of 32:18. Connie Seigh was the first woman in the 5K Billy Goat trail run. Her time of 20:48 was 30 seconds faster than last year which is pretty amazing considering that parts of the trail were badly eroded or covered with water from the recent rains. I will have more results from both races as soon as I can find them.

10/17 Patriot Alumni News: Erin Ballard led Northeastern University to a 5th place finish at Universtiy of Albany Invitational. Erin placed 12th overall in the 23 team race in a time of 18:17.

Reach the Beach Relay – WE MADE IT!
212 miles in 31 hours
It all started sometime last spring with a phone call from my daughter Sarah. "Dad, have you ever heard of the Reach the Beach Relay?" I hadn't. Turns out it's a 200+ mile relay (distance changes a little each year as they make small changes to the course) that starts at Bretton Woods in the White Mountains and finishes at Hanpton Beach State Park on the Atlantic Ocean. There are 36 legs to the relay ranging in distance from about 3 miles to a little over 8 miles. You are allowed up to 12 team members, which is what the vast majority of teams had. At least one ultra-marathon team ran with only 3 runners. Once you set your order for running you must continue to run in that order for the entire event. Our team was put together by Sarah's college friend Susie. It was an interesting mix. No team member knew more than three other members before the race. Susie recruited two of the women for the team from the Reach the Beach chat room. They were cousins, one from Michigan and the other from Georgia, who flew in the day before the race. As you can see from the picture we had only nine runners. There were 12 team members until about ten days before the relay when we got an email from three guys on the team letting us know they were dropping out. Ouch! Not to be deterred we decided that running four legs each wouldn't be that much harder than running three. The race starts on a Friday with the first wave of runners leaving at 7:30AM. Teams start in groups, based on their estimated average per mile pace, every 20 minutes until the fastest of the 300 entered teams go at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Our start time was 9:40AM and I was a little worried that we would not make the cutoff finishing time because our start time was based on our estimate before the three guys dropped out. The first leg covers 3.1 miles but does not get you any closer to the beach. It runs up the ski slope behind the lodge at Bretton Woods and then back down and finshes about 30 meters from where it starts. They say it's the "toughest 5K you will ever run". Leg two heads out onto the roads and really starts the journey toward the ocean. It was cloudy, kind of misty weather as we made our way generally southeast during the day. As darkness came, so did the rain. It rained most of the night as we ran with our headlamps, reflective vests and flashing lights. Running in the dark in pouring rain while chasing those lights was one of the most interesting and challenging experiences of my running life. I must say it will be one I cherish for a long time. We made it through the night and my third leg of the relay was into the dawn. We were running great and keeping on exactly the time schedule we had hoped for. When it came time for our fourth legs everyone found a little extra and we ended up finishing 45 minutes faster than we had expected. They had a nice picnic at the park at the finish. Needless to say we were all tired. I don't think anyone got more than 2 hours sleep from when we woke up on Friday until we finally got to bed on Saturday night. I must give a special word of thanks to our tireless driver and one-person support crew, my amazing wife, Marlene.

9/12 I'm just getting starting checking out John Jay alumni results from the early college season. Dan Jordy is working on his Masters Degree at Binghamton and is using his remaining year of eligibility. He is the captain of the cross country team. At the Colgate Invite on Sept. 3 he finished 23rd in 28:54 and at the Binghamton Invite he finished 68th in a time of 28:47. John Kwamya and Corey Ennist ran their first races for Marist at Sunken Meadow State Park on a course they ran a few times in high school. John had a solid race in the mid 17's, Corey was not as pleased and did not tell me his time.

9/12 The cross country season has started! The Patriot boys opened their season with a 9th place finish at the Big Purple Invitational in Warwick. 28. Brian Ivory 17:58, 29. Matt Milanesi 17:59, 35.

9/6 Happy 40th Birthday Bonnie!

9/5 Mad Dash: What an incredible September day. Everyone enjoy the next two months, they are the best months of the year. Lots of members of the masters training group were in Rhinebeck for one of the best local race days. Both the 5K and the 10K had strong fields in all age groups.
5K: 16. Glen Brent 18:46 (1st 50-59) 23. Gil Anderson 19:31 (3rd 50-59) 34. Steve Perks 20:36 72. Lori Cassia Decker 23:20

8/29 Jeff Nero returned to the racing scene with an age group win at the Walkill 5K. His time of 19:07 was also good enough for 8th overall in the race.

8/28 Chris Thater Memorial 5K in Binghamton: Marisa Hanson finished 1st in the Master's Division and 6th overall in the outstanding time of 17:22. Bonnie Nussbickel finished 2nd in her age group with a time of 19:21. The race was run in warm and very humid conditions.

Thank You!

The party/picnic at Lori's was great. Thanks for the birthday wishes and all the kind words. The practices and the Empire Games were a wonderful experience for all of us. Please keep me posted on what you are all up to. I will post any results you send me so that everyone can keep track of how the crew is doing.

8/25 It has been a very eventful and exciting last couple of weeks. I spent almost a week at The Running School. For those of you that don't know what that's about, it's a high school cross country camp. There were 420 campers there this year from all over the east coast. The camp is staffed by some of the best high school coaches in New York State. For the kids it is a week of running(twice a day), learning (seminars on any topic you can think of related to running, demonstrations, guest speakers) and socializing with over 400 other kids whose favorite sport is running. My week got broken up by a trip home for my son Josh's wedding. It was a wonderful day. The bride glowed and the groom grinned. The ceremony was held on a hill overlooking the Hudson River. Somewhere in all of this I turned 59.

Ted Turner Signs Pro Contract

John Jay alumni Ted Turner (2001) has signed a contract to run for the Indiana Invaders. He is moving to Indiana and will train under Coach Greg Harger. Ted had a very solid career as a Patriot. He was the team's first finisher when they won the NYS Cross Country Championships in 2000. Ted went on to SUNY Geneseo where he really blossomed as a XC, 5K, 10K runner, achieving All-American status many times.

Tom Hyatt was in 8th place in the decathlon after day 1.

Much thanks to Rich and Marisa for putting on another outstanding edition of the Twilight Track Series. They managed to get in all four meets despite less than ideal conditions. Turnouts were excellent on all four nights with some of the best times were run in the adult races in a few years.

7/13 Twilight Track Meet #2: Despite another rainy night there was an excellent turnout. Rich had to cancel the cross country race again because of the field conditions, but everything else went on as planned. Check Thursday's Poughkeepsie Journal for results. Hopefully this Friday will bring better weather.

7/7 Some general updates from the Empire Training Group. Glen Brent ran a 5K this past weekend finishing 30 out of 590 and 3rd in the 50-59 age group. He ran an excellent time of 18:45. Vince Veltre and Connie Seigh went to the Father Mooney 8 mile race in Mahopac on July 4. Connie finished as 3rd woman overall in 52:54. Vince continues to get stronger and finished in 56:09.

A couple of more updates on John Jay alumni who will be participating at the Empire State Games. Sally Briggs will run the 10K on the track, Tom Hyatt will be in the decathlon and Rob Giandalone will be high jumping. Rob was a 6' 4" jumper back in his John Jay days.

Twilight track meet #1: At 5PM we were setting up for the first Twilight Track meet of the season and the skies were generally looking good. By 5:30 it was getting a little dark and at a few minutes after 6:00 one of the strongest thunderstorms I've seen in a long time struck. At 6:45 the sun came out, we were treated to a beautiful rainbow and by about 7:00 the meet was underway. It was amazing how many people braved the storm sitting in their cars or huddled under the little pavilion. The wind blew so hard that the rain was actually going sideways so those of us under the pavilion ended up getting at least somewhat wet. The only concession that had to be made for the weather was the cancellation of the cross country race. All of the kids and adult races were run with excellent participation in all of them. If the results become available I will post them.

6/21 Empire State Games tryouts at Dietz Stadium. Triple jump: Ryan Joyce 41' 6", Chris Turchioe 37' 11". In the 800 m run Joe Mueckenheim ran 1:59. After the first day Tom Hyatt and Kevin O'Connell were 1st and 3rd in the decathlon. Chris Wimmers from the masters training group ran the 800 in 2:19 and the 400 in 60.

6/20 New World Record in 100 m dash for 95-99 men's age group! Kozo Haraguchi of Japan ran 22.04 to break the old record by more than 2 seconds. Haraguchi also holds the 90-94 world record at 18.08 seconds.

6/18 The John Jay DMR ran 10:27 and took 6th in their heat at Nike Outdoor Nationals. Splits were: Corey Ennist 3:13, Tom Hyatt 52.8, Joe Mueckenheim 1:57.3 and John Kwamya 4:24. Congrats on a great race!!
