Sunday, January 23, 2000

A threat of snow reduced the turnout at the second of three indoor track meets this winter at Arlington's Thomas Jefferson Community Center, but excellent performances abounded nonetheless.

In the 3K Race Walk, Timothy Good, 40, of Falls Church VA, walked away with the race in 15:46. The beautiful and talented Linda Rodbell, 50, of Great Falls VA, was the first woman in 20:04.

In the Children's Mile, the top girl finished first in 5:41 -- Sarah Bowman, 13 of Warrenton VA, and the top boy finished second in 6:07 -- Michael Young, 12, of Somerset MD.

In the Women's Mile, winning in 5:59 was Laura Freix, 38, of Centreville, VA. Second in 6:02 was Suzanne Nearman, 37, of Alexandria VA, and third in 6:05 was 8th grader Meggy McGaffigan, 13, of Arlington VA.

In the Open Men's Mile, the newest running star of the Traveling Triantos family, Eliot Triantos, 14, of Rockville MD, outdueled the more experienced Tom Nowicki, 38, of Centreville VA, 5:09 to 5:10.

The Elite Men's Mile was dominated by Chago Navarro, 26, of Washington DC, who ran 4:35, way out in front of Warren Kohm, 29, of Sterling VA, who ran 4:42. Several masters runners used the Elite Mile as a tune-up for the upcoming Adidas Invitational Track Meet, led by Tony Basile, 41, Columbia MD, in 4:48 and Mac Allen, 42, of Washington DC in 4:51.

In the Masters Mile, Marty Horan, 40, of Gaithersburg MD, grabbed the early lead and never looked back, winning in 4:58. Tom Weber, 46, of Lorton VA, a math teacher at Thomas Jefferson Middle School, took advantage of the home field advantage and finished second in 5:10, just ahead of David Webster, 47, of Stevensville MD, running barefoot in 5:11.
