The Rhody 5K was the 4th stop of the USATF-NE Grand Prix Series. The event is held at Twin River Casino in Lincoln, RI. The weather was hot and humid. CMS, not a full strength today in part due to the USATF Mountain Series (see Pack Monadnock results below), came in 4th place in the team standings. GBTC took the last podium spot beating our the Polar Bears by a total of 7 seconds. Many of us are wishing we pushed just one or two ticks harder. Kevin Gorman, Mike Quintal, and Alan Bernier led the charge and were all within 5 seconds of each other. KG and MQ duked it out over the last quarter, exchanging positions 3 or 4 times. At about 2.5, CMS' top 4 were all running as a pack about 2 seconds separating our 1st from 4th man(this was reminiscent of NB Halfer except the players were for the most part different). That gap only spread slightly over the last 1/2 mile. Greg Hammett, who took it out in top 10 position, ran strong. He set the tone for the team early in the race. Tim Van Orden, making his road debut in the GPS series, rounded out the top 5 with a great 16:27 clocking. The next two blue jerseys were Jeff Goupil and Jim Pawlicki. Both ran strong in the humid conditions. Sam Wood also ran well in one of his first USATF races for CMS.
The CMS Masters also ran fast. Their second place showing was in part due to the return of Tim Van Orden, Scott Clark, and Dan Verrington. Rod Veins and Dave Quintal (whose boys look like they're gonna be fast) also ran well for the team. Ernest Brake continues to put up consistent performances and it's only a matter of time before John Pajer goes sub 18:00 again.
