Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Tom Warfel
Very cold weather this morning (mid 30s). Still, Gary came within 2 seconds of his 50+ PR while winning his race by 7 minutes. 70+ runner Brian Low finished 2nd, completing all of the Saturday courses for the year and winning the D division Cum Saturday competition. Ellie Lemco, turned left onto Chester rather than continuing to 10 Acres before turning left. This added about 0.20M to her Short Six distance but she still bettered her course PR by 17 seconds. Tom Warfel took home the weekly trophy as he knocked 3 minutes off his 70+ best and averaged under 10 minutes per mile. And, he did not double his PR of 16:34. Dino ran the Farwell course for the 4th time this year. His time range for these 4 runs was 23:31 to 23:41. Thanks to Danny Moon and Kevin Breit for helping at the finish line.

Calvin Do, two weeks removed from his 2:48 marathon, won this morning. Gary tried hard, improving his 50+ best by 16 seconds, but finished 2nd. Kristina led the ladies. Geoff broke his 45+ PR by 36 seconds. Hank Lawson missed his 27:07 PR by 9_ minutes. Tom Warfel got under the 200% barrier (double his PR of 26:52) by 10 seconds. Chris Blue was just 13 seconds over her 65+ course record. Good weather as it was in the mid 50s and no rain. Thanks to Glenn Kishi (photographer), Danny Moon, and Mike Krey for helping at the finish line.

Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Chris Blue
Gary Waggoner scored a close win over Geoff and Andy. Could this be the start of a new winning streak for Gary? He also improved his 50+ PR by 8 seconds. Geoff had one of his best recent runs but could not run an age-group PR as this was his first time on this course as a 45+ runner. Andy improved his 50+ best by 10 seconds. Kristina led the ladies. Catherine Frye missed her 50+ PR by 4 seconds. Chris Blue broke Georgia Riley's course record for 65+ runners by 55 seconds. Tom Warfel joined your editor as an official member of the 200% club. That is, he more than doubled his PR of 16:34. Congratulations Tom. Dave Piazza drove all of the way up from Pacific Grove to badger your kind and understanding editor about my recent rash of bad football picks in his pool. He looked at my bundle of stats and muttered something like "unbelievable." He was still chuckling when we reached the restaurant. Thanks to Danny Moon, Jim Bordoni, Norry McAllister, and Dave Norlander for helping at the finish line.

Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Gary Waggoner
Norry ran to an easy win after Gary turned left onto Chester where it deadends into Sobey Rd. rather than running another 0.3 miles down Sobey Rd., turning left onto 10 Acres, and then turning right onto Chester. Gary added 0.19 miles to the course by making this incorrect turn. Dwight Cornwell made the same mistake a few years ago. But, guess what? Gary made the same wrong turn 11_ years ago. And, he was running shoulder-to-shoulder with Norry when he made this mistake again. And, Norry told Gary as he was making the wrong turn that he was taking the wrong turn. We awarded Gary the weekly trophy for his persistence in running this non-recognized course. Gary noted that he did PR by 30 seconds for this non-recognized course. Other notable events this morning included - Geoff Bradley improved his 45+ best by 2_ minutes, Bill Dunn ran the #8 best time by a 65+ runner, and Bob Lord ran the #4 best time by a 75+ runner. Thanks to Danny Moon, Carl Petersen, and Jim Bordoni for helping at the finish line.

The scheduled relay this morning was the 4 x 1.46M WVC campus loop relay. However, it rained fairly hard overnight and looked bad when we arrived at 7:30AM. So, we decided to run a modified tennis court loop relay, cutting through the path between the tennis courts to shorten the loop from 0.66M to 0.52M. It turned out that we had a very good workout in that there was no rain, no wind, and moderate temperatures. The relay teams were perfect (if you like slaughters) in that there were no close races for any places. Norry and Kristina led the way with averages of 3:05 and 3:08. Robert Navarrete won the weekly trophy because he willingly agreed to stand around for long periods, waiting for his partner to finish his leg. Don Packwood did warn us that he was out of condition and would run slow and, indeed, he did until he found Dave McIntyre to replace him for his last leg. Thanks to Danny for doing the timing.

The Waggoner team ran to an easy win, possibly aided by the fact that Todd Hayes set his own rating. Gary Waggoner, Geoff Bradley, and Kristina Park had the fastest splits. Dave Norlander and Don Packwood handled setting up the teams and doing the timing. Helen Wong was upset with Dave Norlander's rating for her. Dave denied responsibility. Scott Bang had to run by himself.

Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Becki Kriege
Gary Waggoner ran to his 6th consecutive Saturday morning road win, bettering his 50+ PR by 13 seconds. Norry McAllister, who now refers to Gary as the kid because Gary is in the 50/54 category and Norry is in the 55/59 category, ran well to finish 2nd. Becki and Kristina finished 1-2 for the ladies. Becki was given the weekly trophy because she missed her 45+ PR by just 7 seconds after a long layoff due to injuries. Becki and several others missed their age-group PRs by mere seconds. Norry missed by 18 seconds, Geoff missed by 10 seconds, Robert missed by 1 second, and Mark missed by 7 seconds. Georgia Riley dodged two bullets this morning. Kat missed breaking Georgia's 60+ club record by 3 seconds and Chris Blue miseed Georgia's 65+ record by 23 seconds. Brian Low was credited with a 37:59 time to move into 8th place on the 70+ list. He missed moving in front of Dave Norlander on the 70+ list by 2 seconds. Dave (slow thumb Norlander), our timer, denied that he clicked the watch late after Brian crossed the finish line but had a sneaky smile on his face. Thanks to Danny Moon, Dave Norlander, and Jim Bordoni for helping at the finish line (Brian did not thank Dave).

Danny took home the weekly trophy for his masterful strategy - faking that he would be on the Lo team and then subbing Helen Wong in his place. This paid off in a 51-second win for the Lo team. Helen was seen giving Danny a check as we left. Gary Waggoner again led our runners with a 3:48 average. He was followed by Norry at 3:53, Geoff at 3:58 and Kristina at 4:03.

Don Rebal made a rare visit to the Santa Clara Valley (from Oregon), conned the kindly, honest, and naive handicapper into believing that he would average 9:30 per mile but averaged 8:33 per mile, and then led his team to a 2-minute win. Don fled from the track to the yelling of “don't come back.” Gary Waggoner had the best average at 5:43 per mile and was closely followed by Norry McAllister with an average of 5:46 per mile (with a final mile of 5:35).

(Writeup by Becki Kriege)
We had eight fearless athletes on the track this warm Saturday morning. Danny was drafted to help me set up the handicaps based on my dad's rankings. We gave it our best shot but, sadly, we failed the Lo/Graham team. Brian Conroy exceeded expectations and he was the trophy winner. Carl Petersen and Madelyn Moon did a great job of timing and keeping us organized. Editor's Comment. A math error or two was made in computing the starting times. The Moon/Bordoni team should have won. As usual, your editor missed badly on many of the ratings.

Most of the runners were self rated with the result that we did not have a close race. Liz was pleased that she was able to average about 7:00 per mile when she expected 8:15. Oldie Bill Dunn averaged about 6:00 pace. And, Gary Waggoner averaged 5:30. The runners on the second team did not time their splits. But, Dena Noble thought that she ran the fastest.

Very close race this morning with Gary Waggoner coming from 4th place at the start of the last last lap to nearly catch the winner - Scott Graham. Scott knocked 23 seconds off his first-run time in order to get the win. Gary had the fastest average at 8:33 and Kristina Park had the fastest women's time with a 9:21 average. Jim Bordoni did a super job of putting the teams together as the spread was just 87 seconds from first to last and only 7 seconds between the first 3 teams. We had an odd number of runners available for the relay; so, Jim ran solo, starting each leg with Aaron Lee and did not get to see the exciting finish. Thanks to Danny Moon for doing the timing. No trophy winner as it is still in the trunk of my car but it would have been given to the Tran-Graham team.

Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Andy Williams
We ran the Valle Vista course jointly with runners from the West Valley Track Club, who were celebrating the 50th anniversary of the formation of their club. They timed their runners and we timed our runners. 50+ runner Gary Waggoner scored a close win over fellow 50+ runner Andy Williams. Gary improved his 50+ best by one second. Andy made no improvement but was given the trophy because he ran much better than he has been in recent months. Brian Low ran very well in his first attempt on this course as a 70+ runner, recording the #12 best-ever by a 70+ runner. Dave Norlander took 2 minutes off his 75+ best. Neil Gelblum made it to the Country Inn for the first time since we started having breakfast there after our Saturday runs.

The top 3 averages were 78 by Gary, 81 by Scott Bang, and 82 by Kristina Park. Thanks to Carl Petersen for recording all of the laps times. His handwriting has improved so much (all of his writing was completely legible) that he now is disqualified from writing prescriptions and will have to give up on his ambition to become a doctor at age 76.

Small but enthusiastic group of runners. Gary Waggoner led the way with a sub 2-minute average. Poor Don Packwood. We grabbed him as he arrived on his bike and badgered him into running this relay as we needed another runner to complete a team and we think that in between heavy gasps from him biking effort that he agreed to run. He did appear to be confused as we pushed him to the starting line. Thanks to Carl Petersen, Robert Navarrete, and Becki Kriege for helping with the timing.

Brian took the lead after about 300 meters and then just kept lengthening his lead to earn an easy win. David Larson closed fast during the last 200 meters to get reasonably close. Danny needed a fast last lap in order to break 7 minutes but his body was not up to the task. Don Packwood was 6 seconds over 10-minute pace with a lap to go and finished fast (relatively) to break that barrier.
Heat #2 - (Under 6-Minute Runners) 1 Norry McAllister 5:28.6 2 Scott Bang 5:31.9 3 Gary Waggoner 5:32.4 4 Andy Williams 5:42.7 5 Ken Camet 5:45.3 6 Aaron Lee 5:46.3 7 Dino Delyani 5:47.6 8 Dave McIntyre 6:51.7
Slow start (81 and 2:51 for the first two laps). Then, the top four began pulling away from the pack as they ran an 83 third lap. Scott led Norry and Gary by a fraction at the start of the last lap and they stayed that way for the next 200 meters as Scott desperately tried to pull away. Gary dropped back with 200 meters to go and then Norry sprinted by Scott with about 80 meters left and held on for the win.

Wriiteup By Jeff Rohrer
Today was the 5th Annual Track Day and the 4th year it has been the Rick Milam Track Day. Rick was famous in the local running community as a coach, official, and overall advocate of cross country and track and field. Most importantly he was a great guy and well liked. This year I asked one of Rick's good friends, Danny Moon, to share a Rick story. Danny first made a point of saying that Rick was a great guy and mentioned his role as the announcer at the Los Gatos All Comers' Meets. Rick always had a way of making you feel good. One meet after Danny had run the mile and was going to finish his night with the 200 he got to the line to run but Rick kept running heats that did not include Danny. Finally Danny asked Rick when he was going to run and Rick told Danny to be patient that he was going to “get him a win”. Finally Rick called “Ok, next will be the kids and “Grandpa Moon”. Danny got his win.

Calvin held off a late-minute charge by Jorn for the win. Several runners complained that it was warmish this morning. Some of the notable events included - Gary Waggoner improved his 50+ best by nearly 2 minutes. Dave Norlander improved his 75+ best by 7 minutes. Chris Blue recorded the #3 best by a club 65+ runner, 72 seconds behind the leading time by Marcia Morrison. Jim Howe edged by his 65+ PR by one second. Bob Lord has been very consistent on this course with his last three runs being 39:35, 39:29, and 39:32. His big goal is to break the 75+ record of 39:10.

Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Geoff Bradley
As can be seen, the big race of the day was the Valle Vista run with 17 competitors. Geoff Bradley barely edged Norry by a couple of yards for the win. Norry did break his 55+ record by one second. Denis Kurtis, running his last Saturday race before moving to Florida, missed Bill Dunn's club 60+ course record by 7 seconds. Bill Dunn, now running in the 65+ age group, improved his 65+ best by 56 seconds to move to #4 on the 65+ list. Mark Goldman beat his 60+ PR by 19 seconds.
There was also good ccompetition in the Short Six race with Calvin winning by a fraction over Jorn, whose time put him #18 on the all-time 45+ list out of the 108 club 45+ runners who have run this course. Based upon our 10K equivalency tables, Gary Waggoner ran his best race of the year with his 3rd place finish in the Short Six race.

Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Dennis Kurtis
Great turnout today with many runners who wanted to run with Dennis Kurtis in his last WVJS race before moving to Florida in two weeks. Dennis tied the 60+ age group record and received the trophy for his effort. There were many great performances with 8 runners breaking 40 minutes on this challenging course. Danny Moon made the sacrifice not to run and opted to time instead. Pablo Rodriguez and Madelyn Moon also helped with the timing. Other notable accomplishments included - Brian Davis and Norry McAllister not only had a very close race for first but they recorded the all-time #4 and #5 55+ bests for this course, pushing Tom O'Connor, who did run well today, back to #7. Brian's time was a 2-minute improvement on his previous best. Jim Bordon improved his 60+ PR by 45 seconds and Jim Howe's time put him #10 on the 65+ list. 71 55+ runners, 51 60+ runners, and 26 65+ runners have run this course.

The Bradley team won by an apparent margin of 55 seconds but when their time was adjusted for Geoff Bradley inadvertently starting 51 seconds too soon on his first leg, they won by only 4 seconds. Then, I later discovered that I started the Delyani team one minute too soon. So, they should have finished 4th, 64 seconds out of the lead. Gary Waggoner had the best average at3:53 per run, closely followed by Geoff Bradley and Kristina Park at 3:56 per run. Thanks to Pablo Sandoval and Carl Petersen for doing the timing.

Ken Camet cruised to a first place victory, Scott Bang just in front of Dino at one mile made his move to within 14 seconds Ken. Dino and Kristine entered the college together until the last 100 feet where Kristine showed her track speed finishing 3 seconds ahead of Dino.

Bad handicapping but a close race for first place as all teams were rated to finish in 39:45. Dino estimated that he started at least 200 meters behind Mark Goldman at the start of the last leg and, yet, was able to catch him for the win. Mark claims that Dino started just inches behind him and pulled on his shirt when Dino passed him in the last few yards. Thanks to Danny Moon for giving up his spot on the winning team to Dave McIntyre and doing the timing.

The winning team of Jack Wong and Joe Hurtado were the oldest (73) and youngest (8) runners in this relay. They started first and barely held off the the Bordoni/McAllister team, who started last - 12 minutes after them. Fairly close finish for the first 6 teams as all of the runners on these teams ran under their ratings. Alas, Jim Howe and Mike Krey, the only 2 runners who ran over their ratings had the misfortune of being on the same team and, accordingly, finished last. Geoff Bradley and Norry McAllister had the fastest averages at 2:46 and 2:47. Thanks to Tom Warfel, Carl Petersen, Mike Kriege, Madelyn Moon and Scott Bang for helping at the finish line.

Dick Barrett Trophy Winner - Bill Dodson
So-so weather this morning - mid 50s, light drizzle but a strong wind. Geoff Bradley and Roberto Palos entered the college 300 meters from the finish abreast of each other and stayed that way until about 80 meters to go when Geoff sprinted away for the win. Kristina Park led the ladies. No PRs -- overall or age-group. There were several mishaps. Both Geoff and Dino had to stop to retie their shoelaces. Dino estimated that he lost at least 5 minutes for his stop. Otherwise, he could have been a winner. Bill Dodson ran off course twice - once at the turnoff to Douglas and once at the “trail” sign in the double gate section of the course - but still finished in front of the five 70+ runners. Tim Rostege ran with us for the first time after a long layoff. Thanks to Madelyn Moon, Danielle Zelinski, and Bob Lord for their help at the finish line.

He was helped by his partner running 61 seconds under her rating. Geoff Bradley and Norry McAllister had the best averages at 3:56 and 3:59. Danny Moon and Dave McIntyre teamed up in what you might call the perfect storm as Danny ran 209 seconds over his rating and Dave ran 88 seconds over his rating - the two worst performances of the day.

Gary improved his 45+ best by 30 seconds. Tom Warfel improved his 65+ best (set last week) by 4 minutes. Thanks to Dave Norlander and Dave Piazza for helping out at the finish line.
