Barton Competes in USA Junior XC

Wake Forest freshman Jess Barton competed at the Junior Women's Race (6K) at the USA Cross Country Championships in San Diego on Saturday, finishing 35th in 23:49.

Jampol: 4:26 at the Armory

At the Rider-Lafayette Invitational on Friday, Noah Jampol ran 4:26 for 1 Mile for the second week in a row. His time of 4:26.57 placed him 24th in a large field. The meet was held at the Armory in NYC.

O'Brien Runs 1:37 for 600m; Brecher Runs 2:47 for 1000m

Wesleyan senior Stephanie O'Brien has been running great times in the 500, 800, and 1000 this winter, but to my knowledge, her first attempt at 600m came on Saturday, at the Tufts Stampede in Medford. O'Brien placed second to BC's Siobhan Breagy, running 1:37.22.

At the same meet, Bates sophomore Doug Brecher dropped down to the 1K to work on his speed. The result: a 2:47.79 effort.

By the way, last Saturday (Feb 9) Doug ran a personal best 15:32.50 for 5K at the State of Maine Championships to take fifth. That's 5:00 pace for anyone keeping score at home. Nice race, Doug!

Jerzy ran a 8:56 3k,
I was (mis)seeded in the slower heat earlier and could only a 9:06 alone. Just so it can said that my blazing fast 2:47 wasn't the only thing i did that day :-)

Jerzy Eisenberg-Guyot of Tufts finished 7th in the 3k in 8:56.02, and Doug Brecher seems to have run the 3k as well in 9:06
