CIBC RUN FOR THE CURE SUDBURY SITE SETS RECORD FOR
NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS AND FUNDS RAISED

SUDBURY, ON - Organizers of the CIBC Run for the Cure in Sudbury
ecstatically announced that they raised a record $236,129 locally for the
Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation's 16th annual fundraising event.

"I can't believe it!" exclaimed Manuela Vairo, Co-Run Director for the
Sudbury Run Site. "Early on, we set our goal at $200,000, which was higher
than our site had achieved in the past. We're so thrilled that we exceeded
that goal by 18%!" And funds are still coming in from Tanzania, Hearst and
Timmins, which are all sites where virtual runs are taking place and are
associated with the Sudbury run site.

In addition to smashing the local fundraising record, about 1,200
participants came out to join the fight against breast cancer - more
participants than ever in the 10 year history of the Run in Sudbury.

"It's very gratifying to have such a great turn-out," said Pam
Paradis-Sokoloski, Co-Run Director. "We've been working on this since March
and when we see this number of people come out to participate, we feel like
it's all worth while." In addition to a committee of 11 people, more than
75 volunteers were on-site Saturday and Sunday to set-up, tear-down, act as
run marshals, cheerlead as participants arrived at the finish line and so
on.

Although the event is not about how far or how fast participants ran,
several people were recognized for athletic excellence and fundraising
abilities.

Athletic Excellence
Stephanie Koett was the first cancer survivor to cross the finish line with
a time of 22 minutes, 11 seconds.

Top male finishers:
Mike Coughlin (18 min, 5 sec)
John Schelegey (19 min, 23 sec)
Andrew Barson (19 min, 44 sec)

Top female finishers:
Sarah McIlraith (21 min, 41 sec) - Sarah's daughter, Kate Richards 8yrs old, was first in the 1k.
Stephanie Koett (22 min, 11 sec)
Clair Parkinson (23 min, 8 sec)

Fastest youth (under age 13):
Male - Hayden Kosmerly (12 years old)
Female - Hailey Maziarski (11 years old)

Fundraising Excellence
Ford Determination Award (presented by Cambrian Ford) recognizes the
participant in each Run Site across Canada who raised the most money in
donations by the start of the Run. The Sudbury winner was Myra Gerow, who
raised an amazing $10,041.51

CIBC Corporate Spirit Award is awarded to a corporate team (Team CIBC is not
eligible to win this award) that deposits the most in donations by September
28. The winning team, CVRD Inco Pink Gems, raised $7,910.

Scotiabank Run

by Trevor Shamas

A quick overview of the Scotiabank Marathon / Half-Marathon event from TO last weekend (although if my writing corresponded with my speed in the run, this would be a rather long overview)...

It was a glorious day for running in TO on Sunday Sept 30th and a rather poor day for driving. With the Scotiabank and Run For The Cure events occurring almost simultaneously and about a 1/2 mile apart, if you were thinking of heading downtown in anything but a pair of running shoes you were no doubt a witness to the best TO has to offer in terms of traffic congestion. However, if you weren't looking to participate in either event, it would have served you right. After all, it was a great day to be on foot, with temps in the low teens throughout the morning.

I must admit that the poor organization I saw in the first couple of years of this run has been entirely addressed: no more fans in the finishing area (stealing water and food from the runners), lots of room in that finishing area, an early start (my personal preference), and excellent corrals (separated by Elites, Sub-Elites, Competitive, and Open classes, with marshals making sure you got in the right one, or, more accurately, that you stayed out of one you didn't have a right to be in).

Must also give the organizers credit for getting the race real-time TV coverage and on-line timing updates for each runner. Nice.

Marshallers did a great job. I'll note that the more senior members of that group did a better job than the teenage members, who seemed a little more interested in getting community service hours than working the race properly. I'll still give them credit for being out there, though. When I was that age I was more apt to be looking to head home at the same hour they'd have been showing up to work the race.

And check out...

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/LAC.20071001.MARATHON01/TPStory/TPNational/Ontario/

Overall, I think this event gets a higher rating on the organization side than the upcoming TO Marathon. However, I still give the latter the nod for the best course, particularly in the new layout.

I'll also add that Dave, Shawn and I went for a good carb-laced dinner at Terroni's, on Victoria just north of Richmond. If anyone is looking for amazing home-made Italian pasta it really fits the bill. Small and books out in a hurry, though, so call ahead or get there (very) early.

Finally, thanks, Coach, for your words of wisdom and support following what was a rather discouraging run result for me. Based on your comments, I'll see you in Niagara!

Cheers from the South,
Trev

Ken Stubbings adds:

Today Lynn and I ran the Scotia Bank 5k and Marathon. This was our first time participating in this event. The day was perfect with only a little humidity at the start. Lots of water stations. I saw Shawn at the 34km turn around. It was good seeing a fellow Rock at the race. As everyone knows the course is fairly flat which makes it fast, but I felt that a few hills would have offered a break with using different muscle groups. I tried keeping up with the new record holder but he lost me in the first 10000m (sorry... the key got stuck...should be 1m).

I must be aging because my report is on the pleasant, enjoyment side of for running races instead of discussing times and feeling like barfing at the finish. I'm getting mellow.

See Ya soon.
Ken

Haile The Greatest: Geb Sets World Marathon Record at Berlin

Press Release

By Pat Butcher
September 30, 2007


Nineteen years ago, a skinny 15 year old did what millions of country kids over the centuries have done. Haile Gebrselassie went up to the big city, to seek his fortune. He was only in Addis Ababa a couple of days, just long enough to run a marathon and struggle, half crippled from the effort, back home to his village 175 kilometres away. He would start running again a week later, when the pain subsided, and the dreams of success returned. But even he could not have dreamed that what began with a 2hrs 48min marathon round the back streets of Addis, admittedly at altitude, would presage a career which, thus far has netted him 24 world records, the latest coming in Berlin on Sunday morning, at that same marathon distance, but his time some 44 minutes faster, in 2.04.26.

"It was the only race I could find," he said, recalling his first tribulation an hour after his latest triumph. "I ran in street shoes, with plastic soles, and only finished because there were no cars, there was no other way to get back to the start. The next day, my brother put me on a bus back to Arsela, but the bus stopped several kilometres from my village, and I had to walk. I don't know how I did it". Nearly 20 years on, he still grimaces at the memory, but we all know how he did it. With the same resolve that has resulted in two Olympic golds, four world titles, indoors and out, innumerable victories on road and track. Oh yes, and the little matter of those 24 world records

If we were quibbling, we'd say that he should win the Olympic marathon next year, in order to completely dismiss any doubts that he is the greatest distance runner of all time. But a man who can take a world title at 1500 metres (indoors), as he did in 1999, 18 months prior to a second Olympic 10,000 metres title that he should never have won (of which more later), coupled with this latest exploit on the streets of Berlin should go a long way to bolstering his considerable claim to be 'The Greatest'.

He is certainly the greatest of this modern era, and there are really only two men who can compete for that ulimate accolade. Emil Zatopek of the then Czechoslovakia won four Olympic golds, three at the same Olympics in Helsinki 1952, with an unrepeatable treble (even for a Gebrselassie) of the 5000, 10,000 metres and the marathon, the last one on his debut, no less. It was Zatopek who coined the immortal summation of the marathon, "If you want to run, try a hundred metres, if you want to experience another life, try a marathon".

Asked about world records, Geb himself had said something similar prior to this Berlin race. "In the 5000 and 10,000 metres, you are running against the clock and the opposition. In the marathon, you are running against the distance itself". It's no surprise that men like Zata and Geb should come up with stuff like that. You have time to ruminate, if not in the marathon itself, then in all the miles and kilometres that you do in preparation. Because, no matter how good your back-up, or how many pals you can persuade to accompany you on those treks, inevitably you do most of it by yourself.

It so happens that Geb and Zata share very similar characters, or rather shared, since Zatopek died half a dozen years ago. Like Geb, he was open, friendly, always happy to give succour and advice, in Zata's case, often in the middle of a race. The only other runner who could put them both in the shade was Paavo Nurmi. The Flying Finn, winner of nine Olympic golds, yes, NINE, was by all acounts a remote, sullen, introspective character. Perhaps that's why he is reported to have said at the end of his life that he felt that it had all been a waste. Maybe, like those first astronauts after going to the moon, when you've won nine Olympic golds, there's nowhere else to go. Perhaps we should be happy we're not overachievers, huh? Geb seems very happy to be an overachiever, that's one of the pleasures of sharing his company as well as admiring his running. A smile is rarely far from his face, and you can believe both him and that equally winning personality, Paul Tergat, the Kenyan from whom he wrested the marathon record in Berlin. On the same course in 2003, Tergat had run 2.04.55. Immediately after watching Geb demolish it on television, Tergat rang his friend from Kenya to congratulate him. "Sorry Paul," said Geb, and he meant it. They both mean it when they call each other 'friend'. It says much for Tergat. He is in the same situation as Bing Crosby, who when asked about Frank Sinatra, replied, "He's the greatest crooner of his era. Pity it had to be my era as well".

Tergat did manage something that Geb never did, in fact he managed to win the World Cross five times, while Geb never won it once. But Tergat lost to Geb in two of the greatest Olympic 10,000 metres races that this writer has ever witnessed, in Atlanta 1996, and Sydney 2000. It was the latter race which defined Gebrselassie for me. He had been badly injured some months before, had only effected a comeback shortly prior to the Olympics, and would have been in no shape to cope with Tergat, had the Kenyan thought to reproduce the tactics of Atlanta, where he had run the second 5000 metres over half a minute faster than the first half, in an attempt to run the legs off Geb. But the Ethiopian was in prime form in Atlanta, and swept past to victory. That must have laid the doubts in Tergat's mind. Never a fast finisher, he worked and worked his speed in 2000, such that he felt he could outsprint the Ethiopian in Sydney. Tergat ran steadily, and shot away with 300 metres to run. Geb clawed it back gradually, and inched past to victory. Again! But he admitted again after his Berlin Marathon victory, "Paul would have won easily if had used the tactics of Atlanta". "He won with his head that time," added friend and business associate, former British marathoner, Richard Nerurkar, who travelled from Addis to support his pal.

Speaking of pals, complimentary to a fault, Geb repeatedly thanked the crowds in Berlin for helping him to victory. His estimates of the value of their support ranged from, "Fifty per cent," right after the race, to, "60 to 70 per cent," at his press conference, an hour later. But, whatever help you get from your friends, when you're a marathon runner, and a marathon winner, and now, a marathon world record holder, deep down you know. It's all your own work. And no one deserves it more.

 

 

Are You Up for a Relay?

On May 30-31, 2008 Westover Treatment Centre is pleased be hosting the second annual Westover Shore to Shore 300 KM Relay, the first relay of its kind in Ontario. We had 58 teams (608 participants) last year. We expect over 100 teams in 2008.

The event begins in Port Stanley on Lake Erie and ends in Grand Bend on Lake Huron. Teams of 6-12 are invited to register for one of three relays. The 36 Leg Running Relay begins on Friday morning in Port Stanley. The 22 Leg Walking Relay is 175 KM beginning at Stage Two in Thamesville. The 8 Leg Recreational Walking Relay is 60 KM and starts at Stage Four in Sarnia. Everyone finishes Saturday afternoon with a large beach party in Grand Bend.

Feedback from participants last year taught us that teams need to plan well in advance. Many of you are now finishing your preparation for a fall 10 K, half or full marathon. Soon you will be planning for the spring. We expect the Shore to Shore will again be one of the most unique and exciting running/walking events in Ontario next spring and we would be very pleased to have your club represented by a team or two. For all of the details, results, photo gallery, runner's forum and registration, please visit www.shoretoshorerelay.com.

The event is a fundraiser for Westover Treatment Centre, a residential treatment facility for drug and alcohol addiction. Our 33-Bed facility (Stage Two on the course) is funded 75% by the Provincial Ministry of Health. The rest we raise on our own. To learn more about us, please visit www.westover-fdn.org. We want every runner and walker in the province to be aware of this unique opportunity. They may even take advantage of the early race fee available until October 31.

Thanks very much and don’t hesitate to email our Director of Communications, Chris Veillon, if you have any questions. You will find his coordinates on the "contact us" page of the website.

Willy Van Klooster,

Executive Director

Westover Treatment Centre

from Vince:

I would be willing to assist anyone interested in accepting the responsibility of organizing a Team entry into Westover. Give a call if you are up to the challenge. The Event sounds excellent.

The event will be held on Sunday, October 21, 2007 at 1:00pm (ride) and 3:00pm (Pot Luck).

Both the ride and Pot Luck will be held at Bialkowski Trysport, 77 Bowes St., Parry Sound
