Erichson Memorial: Omar and Doug go 1-2
Marist cross country freshman Omar Perez (above, left) made it 2-for-2 for 2013 in Mid-Hudson Road Runners Club races by winning Sunday's Ed Erichson Memorial 10-miler in 58:24 (5:50 pace on the hilly course). Second place went to his teammate, junior Doug Ainscow, who was just a few strides back in 58:30 (5:51 pace). On the right in the white shirt is senior Will Schanz, who annoyed many of my MHRRC friends by banditing the race. To his credit, he did not mess things up by going near the finish line. Finally, many strides and many minutes back was the old man on the left, who slogged through the 10-mile course in 1:19:20. It was a relatively pedestrian 7:56 pace, but it was also my longest run in about half a year. For those keeping score at home, Marist's own Luke Shane won this race last year in 58:16. Nicely done to Omar and Doug!
