Join the Rocks!! for our Annual Santa Hat Run

THIS SATURDAY

Everyone is invited to join the Sudbury Rocks!! Running Club for our Annual Santa Hat Run. The event is an informal celebration of the season where members, friends and enthusiasts get together for a casual run through Sudbury neighbourhoods. We meet in the lobby of the Cambrian Fitness Centre on Lorne St at 9:00 am and after the official Santa Hat photo, the group takes to the streets for runs of about 1/2 hour to 90 minutes. Coffee and sweets are served after the happy group have returned. All runners are welcome. Don't forget to bring your Santa hats or toques.

Detailed Finish Info Here

Congratulations to fellow Rock!!, Lise Edwards, for her excellent performance in the Honolulu Marathon. Her finishing time of 3:52:57 shaved over 1 hour off her marathon time from last year. It takes dedicated training and a strong focused self to improve that much. I watched Lise train throughout the summer and fall and her time did not surprise me at all as she had every base covered - except maybe the Hawaii heat factor - but she handled that too.

Lise was a member of Team Diabetes and earned the position in the Honolulu Marathon by raising over $6,000 for diabetes education and research. Drop in at the running Room and give her a pat on the back. She'll definitely appreciate it.

Track North News - by Dick Moss

Thursday, December 09, 2004

from Darren Jermyn

University of Windsor Track and Field Press Release



Madeleine Woods, (Sudbury, ON - Track North) who is in her second year of competing for the Univerisity of Windsor's Indoor Track and Field Team (but first year running without being held together with glue and duct tape) started the 2004/2005 indoor season with some solid opening season performances at the annual Blue vs. Gold intrasquad meet held earlier this week.

Departing from her regular long sprint events, Madeleine took on the role of "track superhero" in attempt to lead her Gold team to victory. Despite outstanding performances of 7.50m in the shot (apparently the poor fellow stuck officiating this event strained his wrist because he had to shorten the measuring tape so much) and a 3000m time over 16 minutes (Madeleine was forced to finish this in the dark because everyone left and they turned the lights off), Woods' Gold Team was unable to catch Blue this year.

It should be noted that Madeleine did run times of 1:41.44 for the 600m (run solo) and 43.29 for the 300m at this low key meet. Both of these times are very close to Madeleine's best times from her injury plagued season last year and are a good indication of things to come this season. Woods also set a new 60m PB of 8.31 seconds and ran a 27.5 second 200m relay split and also competed in the 1000m race (no word on if the lights got turned off for that one as well but it's a safe bet).

Following the meet, Woods commented that she looks forward to some appointments with massage guru Rickey Goudreau upon her return to Sudbury for the Christmas holiday. She did not comment on whether or not she would continue as a multi-eventer but in an unrelated story, OTFA field event officials have planned an emergency meeting to discuss the possibility of replacing measuring tapes with short lightweight rulers to prevent future overuse injuries among officials.
