Results from the Hartford Track Club's Peoples' Forest 8.5 and 17-Mile runs are posted. It was Marc Robaczynski who lead the way. Robaczynskii took it out fairly easy and passed through three miles at 18:00. As Robaczynski approached the half-way mark, he made an abrupt turn and took advantage of the brand new heated rest rooms located at Matheis Grove. Robaczynski was still in the lead as he departed for his second loop with a comfortable smile and negative splits... View the photo index. Congratulations to Beckie Wright, first female 17 Miler. Congratulations to Bill Thramann and Kate Lapinski, winners of the 8.5-Miler. Thramann, the race director, made it back in time to welcome all the finishers.

Geoff Nelson, 24 from New Fairfield, CT ran 21:07 to cover the classic Brookfield 4-Mile course under runner friendly conditions today. Joe LeMay won this race in 2006 at the age of 39 and was second in 2007. Today, the forty-three year old, LeMay had his hands full in dealing with the youngsters. He was a very respectable 2nd. Daniel Lennox, 29, from Bedford, NY finished third with a 22:52. Meanwhile, Claudia Nero was only about 34 seconds from her time in 2008. Sara Belles had a fantastic 2009 season and appears to be solid. Her fitness recovery coming from a 2009 State of Connecticut Open Cross-Country Championship season should be respected. It's perfectly acceptable to have cellebrated recent race winnings during this joyous holiday season. Emmy Stocker is hot off some recent dough. Congratualtions on an outstanding turnout, and thank you to the volunteers, organizers, sponsors, and supporters of the sport of New Year's Resolutions. Results for the 23rd Annual Brookfield Lions/James O'Brien Run for Sight 4-Miler are posted!

A record field. A new Masters record. Several runners gain spots on the all-time top twelve list. The kids reign as Zack Schwartz (#240), 21 from Newtown, took out the first mile in about 5:20 and never looked back, except to stop and take a break at the water table located at the 8-mile mark. Defending women's champion, Brittany Heninger (#2) ran conservatively for the first few miles. She maintained her lead and lowered her course pr from last year by nearly 5:30. Jeff Niedeck (#229), a former champion, lowered his 2006 Master's course record by nearly 50 seconds. The Hockomock Swamp Rat brought its Grand Pricks Series to Norfolk for the 4th time in twelve years. The Rats were pumped and all the spectators, volunteers, and runners had a great time. The founder, publisher, and chief coordinator of the Rat is Peter Wallan. Through the years, I've run several of the Rat Series and the group of runners, families, and friends that Peter has managed to bring together seem like a very large family to me. Thanks Peter. Your contribution to the sport of running goes far beyond just running. Good times. Thank you to everyone who made the Norfolk Pub 10-Mile Road Race a great success. Results are posted. I took about 120 photos and I'll post them during the week. 12/18/09

There is also another minor patch of ice at the 2.8 mile mark. "Green lights all the way down the boulevard". The hills are much smaller this year.

The Norfolk Pub 10-Mile Road Race is the best 10-Mile Road Race in Connecticut. It's the toughest 10-Mile Road Race in New England. Only physically fit runners should attempt to race this USATF Certified (CT00003DR) course. All others should start with a conservative approach. Check out a detailed layout and commentary of the course. I recomend that you when you do check out the "detailed layout and commentary" that you start by scrolling down to the dates of description starting around late November of 2004 and then scroll your way up to present day. I plan on posting the preregistration list for 2009 as well as the most current revision of the top ten Men's and Women's times of all time. You can register on Race Day.
