Kyle
Miller approaches the halfway point of the race.
|
Just
past the two-mile mark, with about a mile to go, L-R:
Shadrack Kiptoo, Galen Rupp and Matt Withrow lead.
|
Withrow
picked this spot to throw in one of his trademark
surges, he quickly put a lot of ground on Rupp and
Kiptoo...
|
...but
he lost steam before they reached the big hill and
Rupp, Kiptoo and Josh McDougal passed him again.
|
Withrow's
surge did not work as it had in the past, but it turned
out Withrow can win a race more than one way.
|
|
Kiptoo
leads Rupp.
|
Ryan
Deak runs in fifth place.
|
Ben
True runs in sixth place.
|
R-L:
Christian Wagner, Bradley Harkrader and Garrett Heath.
|
With
a mile to go, the Midwest wais looking good in the
team race.
|
|
Mohamed
Trafeh runs a little farther back than expected.
|
Scott
MacPherson leads Victor Gras.
|
Gras
looked like he would surely improve on his 28th finish
from last year.

Hutchins of North Carolina.
|
Hutchins
