PRE-RACE

102: Audrey Kingsley: "I am here to
protect my google rating. I am currently holding third place
behind Stacy Creamer and Alan Ruben, but Stuart
Calderwood is coming on strong. By the way, Paul
Sinclair was supposed to come with me, but he ditched me!"
The above statements are speculations, but the truth is this ---
she went up there to cheer her teammates, and she did a good job
too!
- Photo
103: Fred Trilli and Bola Awofeso
--- guess what? The race is going to be delayed by half
an hour because there is some cash still standing on line (note:
cash = latecomers).

104: Roger Liberman brings his two sons
- Photo
105: Two men in black, one of whom (John Marron)
is a frequent photo subject (see example)
- Photo
106: This Frenchman wondered: "I have been
told that I am the most frequently photographed non-member on
the Central Park Track Club website. I wonder why ..."
- Photo
107: The world's number one baby sitter Stacy
Creamer with Jesus Montero's daughter. For this
piece of public service, Stacy more than deserves to retain her
google rating leadership.

ENTERING THE FRONT HILL (FIRST LAP)
- Photo
111: Toby Tanser trails Jorge Real
(WSX)
- Photo
112: Erik Goetze is running off the path
at this instant, because he was bumped off the trail by a big
elbow from the Frenchman. While it is true that we constantly
remind our runners to look out for the Frenchman when we run,
this is the reason that he is photographed so often.

and Craig Chilton in a row

END OF FLATS (SECOND LAP)
- Photo
131: Toby Tanser --- this is why people love
cross-country races --- you flow like the wind over the soft grassy
flats
- Photo
132: Toby Tanser --- oops, we should also
mention that cross-country races can hurt!

141: G'mo Rojas

142: Theodore Peterson (NYH) is the loudest
complainant: "Why don't you take a photo of me?"
Well, it's nothing against the fact that he is a man in black.
The appropriate answer is: "If you can talk like that, you
mustn't be running hard enough."
- Photo
143: When Herbie Medina (MILL) ran by with
Derek O'Connor, he said, "I've gotten to know this
man. He is a good person ..." Well, shut up and
keep running already!!!

148: Robin Roberts and Frank Schneiger
about to ascend the steep hill just before the bridge. When
Robin looked up to see our photographer perched up there, she
began to curse ...

149: Margaret Nolan has this wonderful suggestion,
"I live right next to Van Cortlandt Park. Next year,
I'll invite everyone back to my place for post-race celebrations."

155: Stuart Calderwood (technical note: there
is an advantage in being slightly behind because you can get your
photo taken twice)
- Photo
156: Kevan Huston

157: Dave Howard
- Photo
158: G'mo Rojas. Let us guess --- the
reason that he wears a cap is that he does not want to see how
steep the hills are ...

ENTRANCE TO THE FLATS (THIRD LOOP)
- Photo
171: Josh Feldman
- Photo
061: Coming down the last hill, Stuart Calderwood,
Craig Chilton and the consummate downhill runner Alan Ruben.
- Photo
062: Alan was circumspect about this race: "Well,
you probably have a lot of photos of me in distress today.
But you don't have any photos of me dropping out of a race."
Has he ever done that? Yes, that would be during the Knickerbocker
60K in which he was leading up to the last lap before he had to
abandon the race. What happened? He got 'a bit cold'
after running 32 miles in singlet and shorts in a driving ice
storm.
- Photo
063: Alston Brown
- Photo
064: Kevan Huston
- Photo
065: G'mo Rojas runs shoulder to shoulder
with another competitor with 600m to go. Based upon career
statistics, we would have picked G'mo, who has a 800m PR of 1:54.
Unfortunately, that was several years ago and many missed track
workouts ago, so he got buried today.

073: Our brand new teammate Sue Pearsall.
In view of the mass influx of new members in recent months (e.g.
17 were accepted last month), Craig Chilton suggests: "Maybe
we should post the photos of new members on the website."

..."

077: Josh Feldman shows his third-place finisher's
medal.
- Photo
078: Stuart Calderwood to Kevan Huston:
"I'm afraid your medal is for women ..." There
was a major foul-up because the men were handed the women's medals
...
- Photo
079: Here is the real reason why the Frenchman gets
photographed so often, and it is not because he eats carrot cake
...
- Photo
080: Bola Awofeso enjoys his birthday cake
present from Eve Bois, who says, "I always keep a
birthday cake handy in my backpack. You never know whose
birthday it might be ..." Are you impressed or not?
- Photo
081: This photo was taken during the return trip
to downtown Manhattan. Brian Barry wants to know,
"Why are you taking a photo here? What is there?
I don't see anything? Is there a building? Is there
a pretty girl? I don't see anything."
