"Frosty" Downin does a pre-race stride.
|
The
Millennium Mile has grown tremendously...
|
...in
its five years. This year's inclusion in the New Hampshire...
|
...Grand
Prix Series helped bump up the number of entries...
|
...as
did the unseasonably warm weather.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There
were 546 official finishers at this year's race...
|
...and
even more unofficial finishers. A sizeable number...
|
...of
entrants neglected to put their timing chip on their...
|
...shoe
and were therefore not included in the results.
|
This
race began in 1999, when John Mortimer, Matt Downin
and Andy Downin...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...decided
to have a race in conjunction with their New Year's
party.
|
The
party-like atmosphere remains and the race is also
quite competitive.
|
Casey
Moulton, 22, of Pelham, New Hampshire, jumped out
to a lead...
|
...in
the first 400 meters and held on to it until about
the halfway point.
|
Moulton
has won many New England-area road races and has a
twin brother, Patrick, who runs for Providence College.
