Record no more...

Congratulations to my former college teammate T. Jay Sanderson for shattering my old school record in the outdoor 5000m. He clocked 14:26.79 to break my old record by 36 seconds (15:02.52, set in May of 2003). He also will likely qualify for NCAA Div. II nationals with this performance. He is already a multiple-time All-American, and is a much, much better runner than I ever was.

Jon,

Saw you visited my blog. Good to hear from you. Hope all is well. Drop me a line sometime and catch me up on all that's going on in your life (you're married?).

RRR

I gave it a try last night, and I beat his record by 15 seconds....but I was driving in my car...does that count???

Sorry, it has to be bipedal locomotion. So unless you have a manual transmission, it doesn't count.
