CMS takes on New Bedford Half Marathon

The New Bedford Half Marathon hosted the first USATF New England Grand Prix road race for 2018. This was the Half Marathon Championship for the New England Region.

The CMS men's open racing team, led by Dan Vassallo and his 5th overall place, led the team place to a 2nd place finish. The masters team was fronted by Alan Bernier, pacing the "over 40 year old" team to a 3rd place showing. The Senior "over 50" team placed 1st and was led by David Principe Sr.

Overall, the CMS men had 27 runners finish the race which found sunny skies, temps in the 30's, and a little head wind in the final 3rd of the race.

Personal Bests were had by the following: Scott Leslie, Daniel Raboin, Kevin Hankens, Erik Vandendries (first half marathon since the 1970's). Anyone else?

The second race in the Grand Prix will be the Frank Nealon Boston Tune Up 15k in Upton, MA at the end of the month.
