NNHS Alumni at BU Mini-Meet (12/20/08)

As the snow continued to fall from the tail end of Boston's first big snowstorm of the winter, there were some good early season races from NNHS alumni at the first BU mini-meet of the season. Many runners use these meets as fast workouts, running multiple events for strength and tuning.

Dave Cahill had himself a very nice sprint double, winning the 400m outright in 50.80, and coming back to run 23.80 in the 200m.

John Blouin ran the mile, finishing 4th in the 3rd heat with a time of 4:42.20.

I could swear that Josh Seeherman ran the mile, too, although I don't see his name in the results. In any case, he ran the 800, clocking 2:07.90.

Also good to see several NSRP folks, including Mike Burnstein and Jerzy Eisenberg-Guyot getting some speedwork in by running the 800, and James Vance, who PR'd in the mile, running 4:34.70 in what he said was his first mile race since high school.

Yeah, I was right behind Craig Fram in Blouin's heat. Ran a 4:45, which made it a reasonable fitness double for this part of the season (especially since the 200 was shorter than usual). Will give Vaitones the business for missing me in the photo.

Hey Josh--like to get Evon Kostadinov into the GBTC. He won't be going to school and wants to compete. Who does he contact?

Coach B, he should email Dave Callum at david_callum@yahoo.com. Always looking for more warm bodies . . .
