Roxbury's own Chris Brigham made it look like a race, as
he let Mike Abraham and Ed Sandifer run with him for two miles, before parking
them at the bottom of the big hill while he ran away from them. The
Old Fossil, Ed Sandifer watched helplessly as Chris, then Mike disappeared over
the hill, and as fast-improving Ken Merrick marched past him to take third
place.
Among the women, camera-shy Pam Quist romped, well over a minute ahead of Kyle Gancher and winner for the last two weeks, Lynn Zuback.
Tom McNulty was only slightly slower than usual, despite getting home at 3am, just five hours before the race? So, why was Tom out so late, leaving himself just three hours of sleep? Blame Ryan Thomas McNulty, just seven hours old when the race began. Yes, Tom and his wife are the proud new parents of a baby boy, born at 12:30 am, just hours before Roxbury began. Tom's wife elected not to run this week. Congratulations, Tom!
Nine Roxbury runners ran Boston last month. Eight finished. You can see how they did at the Roxbury at Boston site.
In last week's picture, we noted that Walt Schuttler and Carl Hunt had missed last week's race. Their "excuse" was that they were off in Canada running the Ottawa Marathon. Both of them are trying to run marathons in as many states as they can. Hate to tell you, guys, but Canada isn't a state.
This week's picture is Bob Derringer, just moments before he realizes that he locked his keys in his car.
The Roxbury Races are now listed on the Internet both on CoolRunning.com and on HiTekRacing.com.
