2001 Roxbury Race #33

4.3 miles - High Bridge Road

October 13, 2001 

   

Schemm, Quist

    Web Guy missed the race this week, so we can only guess how JT Schemm beat Jay Kuenzle and how Pam Quist beat Kyle Gancher this week.  Both races were fairly close, 15 and 14 seconds respectively.  Let's guess that Jay took the race out fairly quickly, since it went past his house just over a mile out, but that his fast start took a toll, and that JT caught him.  Homeboy Jay Kuenzle used to have a reputation for starting really fast, and then having to re-pay his oxygen debts towards the end of the race.  He's been overcoming those habits lately, but with the excitement of seeing the leader, he may have had a relapse.  That makes our guess reasonable.

    On the other hand, let's guess that Pam led most of the way, but that Kyle, tapering for a big effort at the Mystic Marathon, just shadowed her and followed her across the finish line.

    We are glad to welcome back to the finish line Wayne Blackman and Lynn Zuback.  Both have been anguishing on the sidelines for several weeks, nursing slow-healing injuries.  They are still far from top form, but it's good to see their names back in the results.  Welcome back,guys! 

    Gee, it's hard to write a race report when you don't really have any idea what happened.  Maybe Web Guy ought to be writing press releases for politicians?  [Note: The next week, we learned that our guesses were almost entirely wrong!  Maybe we really do have a future in politics!]
