L-R:
Benjamin Schulz, Sandy Roberts, Justin Harbor, and
John Black.
|
New
York's Andrew McCann...
|
...and
his teammate Thomas Gruenewald start off more conservatively.
|
With
the new Nike Team Nationals one week earlier, a handful
of the athletes came...
|
...into
this meet a little less rested than they would have
been under the old qualifying system.

|
Approaching
the halfway point, Mohamud Ige continued to lead...
|
...but
he was joined up front by the South's Andrew Bumbalough
(#71)...
|
...and
Scott MacPherson (#72). The course is somewhat like
a...
|
...figure-eight
which the runners do twice. Here the were finishing
up...
|
...the
first loop and getting ready to head by the starting
line again.
