[Week of 6/6- 6/12]: One Month of Racing to Go...

As we begin the racing season's final month, we've added one final tune-up event: the NYRRC Tuesday Night Speed Series a week from this Tuesday, June 14th.  They have the following events starting at 7pm: 1500m 400m, 3200m, 4x400 relay.  Not only will this be a great opportunity to get out and compete in NYC, but it will be helpful to see and feel the facilities of the 2011 Club National Championships on July 8-9! 

Oh, and here's the East Region 4x400, from last week, where Tony Harris reels in Shore AC on the anchor leg!

Props
Props to the lone runner to rock the GSTC uniform this weekend, Pat Lastrange.  He raced the Bob Beckert Memorial 5k earlier today, and placed second overall in 17:23.  Sounded like a rough race, as first and third places were far away.  Good work, Pat!

While they are not complete, they are finally published; here are the results of the East Region Club Championships from last weekend.  I believe with impending corrections in the 3k RW and 1500m, we will gain six more points, although this will not impact overall team places.

Welcome
This week we welcome three: Kara Madison, Kevin PaivaKaseem Jackson, and Isaih Simpson.  Kara is a senior at Rutgers, majoring in journalism and media studies.  She ran both the 100m and 200m at Elizabeth HS, and still holds the school record in the triple jump.  Kevin, a former distance runner for Union HS and Kean, races everything from the mile to the steeple.  Kaseem is a powerhouse sprinter, who has run 22.1 and 49.9 for the 200m and 400m, respectfully.  Finally, Isaih is a 100m/200m specialist, who ran 11.0 and 22.8 last year and attends Delaware State. 


JUNE 20th: President's Cup
All hands on deck, distance folk!  It is two weeks from tomorrow....fast slow and in-between, this 8pm race Monday night is a fun one....let's get EVERYONE there.....this should be FUN!
