Rolek at New Jersey 20km

A hearty NICELY DONE to Marist Running Alum Mike Rolek, who was third overall out of 460 finishers in the Miles for Music 20-kilometer race, held at Johnson Park in Highland Park, N.J. Rolek ran 1:05:21, an average of 5:16 per mile.

What makes Rolek’s run amazing is that he was sidelined for most of the fall and early winter with major injury issues. For him to bounce back so quickly, and so well, is truly remarkable.
