The CMS men’s racing team competed in the last of the USATF
New England Grand Prix Road Race series for 2017 with the Baystate Marathon in
Lowell, MA. The cool 8:00AM start warmed up into the 70’s by the late morning. In
the end, a Bronze and two Gold’s for the men’s team.
The open team placed 3rd out of 11 teams. Colin
Carroll led the way running 9th overall with a time of 2:35:07.
Scott Leslie, with his second marathon in a week, ran 2:36:33, 14th
overall. Alan Bernier who also led the masters team, was the third CMS runner
to cross the line, running a time of 2:38:49, good for 16th overall.
He won his age group and was the first 40+ runner to cross the line. The
masters team took first place out of six scoring teams. After Alan Bernier,
David Principe Sr and Ed Sheldon worked together for most of the race running
2:44:49 and 2:45:41 respectively to wrap up the scoring for the masters team. While
David and Ed scored down for the masters team, they along with Dave Dunham,
2:57:11 captured the team win out of five senior teams. All three placed 1, 2,
and 4 in the 50+ age group.
Lastly, congrats to the following CMS men who completed Iron
Runner status by completing all six of the USATF races in 2017. Per Dave Dunham
(check out his blog), CMS had the 3rd most Ironrunners this year.
