Casey
Moulton leads the race, but the expected contenders...
|
...stay
within close range.
|
Right
around the 800-meter mark...
|
...the
pack swallowed up Moulton.
|
Fittingly,
race founder and director John Mortimer (#594) leads
the way...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...down
the hill.
|
Also
up front are #460, co-race founder Andy Downin...
|
...#600
Sean O'Brien, a former NCAA All-American...
|
...in
the 1,500m for American University, and #568 Nick
MacFalls.
|
Lubert
Lewis (far right), best known for his 800m speed,
also stalked the leaders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also
up front, second from left, is the BAA's Tyler McCabe.
|
The
race starts at John Mortimer's old high school, Londonderry...
|
...and
runs one mile down the road and finishes just past
Mack's Apples...
|
...Farm
Market. The race record of 3:51 is held jointly by...
|
...Scott
Anderson (1999) and Andy Downin (2001).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
race really began as the leaders passed the 1200-meter
mark.
|
No
one made a big move, but Sean O'Brien slowly began
to pull away.
|
After
the race, O'Brien learned that Nick MacFalls (right)
will...
|
...become
his roommate in the near future when O'Brien heads
out...
|
...to
Palo Alto to train with the Nike Farm Team.
