I couldn't quite wrap my mind around the fact that there was an outdoor track meet in the Boston area this weekend, but the results are posted, so it must have happened: on the first full day of spring, Northeastern hosted the Husky Spring Open at their track in Dedham.
It was great to see the return of Northeastern sophomore Jess Barton after she sat out the winter season to let an injury heal. Jess won the women's 5000m yesterday with a time of 17:48.64, over a minute ahead of 2nd place.
Also competing in the 5000 (somewhat surprisingly so, since he usually focuses on the 1000/mile) was Seb Putzeys, who ran a more-than-respectable 15:26.84 (definitely a personal best at that distance) for 4th place.
Now this is not a recent result, but I am delighted to report that Ciaran O'Donovan (NNHS '03) is back running again, and completed the Kaiser Permanente Half Marathon in San Francisco on Feb 1, 2009, running 1:39:10.
