26 January 2002
Aaron Gillen and Silver Lumsdaine set meet records on a cool, slightly windy day.
The men's race was the most exciting since the first year. A 65-sec first lap, and it wasn't that far ahead of pace. Justin Gillen acted as the pacesetter for the first couple of laps (800m in 2:16), then Aaron Gillen and Curly Guillen settled in together, with a significant gap on the rest of the field (who were hauling ass). At the end of the third lap Aaron put in a surge and over the next 600m pulled 40m on Curly. Curly didn't lose his concentration, but Aaron was too strong. Last lap of 68 and looking smooth and easy. Curly made it under 9:00 for the third-fastest time in the five-year meet history.
The women's race was Silver Lumsdaine knocking 20 seconds off the meet record she set last year. Silver was cruising, though she did lift for the last lap (76 sec.)
The best age-graded performance belonged to Gregg Horner, with Aaron close behind. (Only performances over 80% are shown.) Eight people made the over-40 USATF Master's All-American standard (with Gordon McClenathen missing by just 2.3 seconds, or three-tenths of one percent).
