Outstanding efforts by the CMS men’s teams on Sunday,
competing in two Grand Prix events that closed out the individual ATR Series,
USATFNE Cross Country Grand Prix, and USATFNE Road Race Grand Prix. The 40+ team picked up 2nd at
Franklin Park for the New England XC Championship masters 8k race. The top five
scorers were Greg Putnam, Tim Van Orden, Joe Shairs, Todd Callaghan, &
Arthur Besse. The guys anxiously got updates and whispers from other runners as
to what was going on sixty miles north in the Manchester City Marathon. In the
end, the men’s open team placed 1st with Dan Vassallo, Scott Mindel,
and Eric Narcisi finishing 1, 2, & 10th overall to edge out
Whirlaway by over a minute. The masters scored 2nd overall with Ed
Sheldon, Dave Dunham and Nick Taormina pacing just behind Whirlaway by less
than two minutes. The senior trio of Ed Sheldon, Dave Dunham, and David
Lapierre outpaced Whirlaway by 42 seconds.
