Results - Week of February 12

Greg Hammett is boss out on the trails as usual as he and CMS Men's Racing Team manager Al Bernier go 1-2 at the Brrr-lingame 15K trail race down in Charlestown RI.  Greg is continuing his winning ways out on the trails and is setting himself up nicely for a PR attempt at DH Jones (which is NOT a PR course) at the end of the month.

Tim VanOrden was busy jet-setting around the US, competing in the ESB Run Up on Wednesday and then the USATF Masters XC National Championships on Saturday.  Tim is no stranger to national championships and big races.  Tim was voted USA Masters Mountain Runner of the year last year and is continuing to target big races this year....all on a diet of green smoothies no less!

The ageless Daniel Verrington was back on the podium with a strong run in his front yard at the Bradford Valentines 5 Miler in Bradford, MA.

XC Nats and ESB

Tim VanOrden finishing 4th last year at the Empire State Building Run-UP

CMS' Tim VanOrden (Bennington, VT), who was named the 2011 USATF Masters Mountain Runner of the Year last year, had a strong week of racing as he tried to better his 4th place showing in last year's Empire State Building Run-Up but fell just short after being on PR pace for about 60 floors. Tim became ill over the last 26 floors and dropped back, but still finished a solid 10th place (results) down in Manhattan on Wednesday night.

He then made his way out to USATF Cross Country Nationals in St. Louis, MO where he finished a stellar 12th place in the Masters Race (results) on Saturday.  Former CMS runner Rusty Snow was 3 seconds out of the overall win and former longtime CMS runners Eric Morse and Dave Dunham also had strong races, finishing 21st and 22nd respectively.

Results - Week of January 29





Tim VanOrden (Tivo) (above) doubles up this weekend (what else is new) with nice wins at the GSH Snowstorm 5k (hilly) and the modified Curly's Record Run course, where Tim holds 4 consecutive single-age course records, out in Pittsfield, MA.  That is another race in the WMAC-Dion Snowshoe Series for 2012 (video below courtesy of Brad Herder, photo above courtesy of Berkshire Sports).
Greg Hammett ran another solid winter track race down at the Terrier Classic at BU (Flotrack video below of Greg's come-from-behind near win). Dave Dunham ran to a solid second place finish in the 5000 Meters at the USATF East Region / NE Masters Indoor Championships in Providence RI.

Results - Week of January 22





Updated (1/24) Scott McGrath is BOSS at the 17th Annual Boston Prep 16 Miler in Derry, NH on Sunday. Scott's first win of 2012 was a big one, besting 608 brave souls on the slippery roads of Derry, New Hampshire.  He ran the 34th fastest time ever in the 17th years of the race, which usually attracts a very good field year in and year out.  Scott's time was the 12th fastest CMS time and he's the 8th fastest CMS individual (Dave Dunham (2), Justin Fyffe, Byrne Decker (2), Greg Ward, Rod Viens (2), Dan Verrington (2), Andy McCarron). Scott is the 3rd different CMS runner to win the race.  Dunham has two victories there (1997 and 1999), Byrne Decker (1996), and Andy McCarron (2009).  This win comes as Scott is currently the poster boy for New England Runner, with a very nice shot of him sandbagging at the Cape Cod Marathon back in October.

The top 100 times of all time for Derry Prep is here.

On the snow, CMS runners fared quite well up in NH and out in Western Mass this weekend with multiple podium spots.  Jim Johnson and Dave Dunham went 1,3 at Kevin Tilton's 2nd Annual Whitaker Woods Snowshoe race in Intervale, NH (part of the Granite State Snowshoe Series).  Tim VanOrden and Dave Dunham went 1,2 out in Lanesborough, MA on Sunday at the Constitution Hill Snowshoe Race (part of the Dion/WMAC Snowshoe Series) with Tim Mahoney and Ross Krause finishing right behind in 3,4.
