Stowe Eight MIler

The Stowe 8 Miler was the 5th stop in the USATF-NE Grand Prix Series.  In the Men's Open Division, the Polar Bears took home second place. In the Master's Division, the team placed third.

For the open team, Justin Fyffe led the way by placing second overall.  Fyffe ran with a large pack for about half the race before extending it out after eventual winner Brian Harvey made a move.  Fyffe ran strong through the last mile and created a small gap on Eric Blake to place in the show position.  Bob Wiles situated himself just off the lead pack in the opening mile and ran strong throughout the race to come in second for the team.  Andy McCarron continues to be a strong and consistent force for the Striders; he was third for the team.  Mike "The Closer" Quintal ran an outstanding second half of the race.  Mike passed runners throughout the last grueling miles, a testament to his closing abilities.  Greg Hammett is back.  He ran an outstanding race in the heat to round out the top five.  The next two runners for CMS were DoubleJ and Dan Navaroli.  Dan is now fully out of his winter cocoon and running well.  New-comer Ben Jenkins, making his Polar Bear debut, did well for his first 8 miler.  We're glad to have him on the team.

The master's team was led by Dan Verrington, who runs well no matter what the racing conditions are.  DoubleD came in second for the team.  This course was hilly but just not  mountainous enough for Dunham to truly shine.  He, of course, still did great.  Tim Van Orden, keeper of blueberries and guide to refreshing swimming holes, placed third for CMS.  Two tough guys, Ernie Brake and John Pajer rounded out the top five for the masters.

Mt Washington state record - Maine

Matt Russell broke the Maine state record at Mt Washington, taking over 2 minutes off of Rob Pierce’s time from 1995. Matt is one of four CMS members to hold state records (Blake set the NY record in 2005 while still a member of CMS).


State—Year—Pl--Time
ME----2010—7---1:04:21---Matt Russell

MA----1999—3---1:00:37 ---Dave Dunham
NH----1993—2---1:00:44---Dave Dunham
NY----2005—2---1:01:07---Eric Blake
VT----1999—4---1:01:09---Eric Morse

Blake and Dunham are the only two runners to hold multiple state records. Blake also holds the CT record 1:00:39 (set while a member of BAA).

2010 US National Champions

Rhody 5K and Pack Monadnock Results

The above are all pictures from the Rhody 5K. All pictures taken by Krissy K. Click on "Krissy" to see all of her great shots. They are bigger on her site. Thanks Krissy. Photo 1: The CMS Team. Photo 2: Postrace chat. Photo 3: KG and MQ duking it out in the last 100. Photo 4: Jim Pawlicki and Dan Verrington early on. Photo 5: Greg Hammett at ~1 mile.

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.
