I’ve
only run on the Bates (Lewiston ME) indoor track four times but I’ve had pretty
good luck. I’m looking forward to heading up this weekend for the “Indoor
Insanity 5k”. It sounds like a cool way to introduce people to indoor
track without overwhelming them. My last 5,000 at Bates was over 30 years
ago. I’m hoping to run close to 1 minute a mile slower, and that would be
a good day.

results:
12/11/82
= Dual meet U-Lowell vs. Bates, my freshman year of indoor track. We won
99-39. I finished 2nd in the mile in a personal best of
4:21.8.
02/26/83
= New England championships 5,000 meters. I finished 5th in a
freshman and U-Lowell record of 14:35.8 (4:35/4:43/4:45).
02/27/87
= New England championships 5,000 meters. I had an off day (I’d run 14:15
earlier in the month) taking 3rd place in 14:31.8. 1st
Nakkim 14:08 2nd Lawson 14:17.
02/22/97
= USATF Maine championships. Not sure why I went to this meet. It
was very poorly run and the mile ended up starting 2 hours late. The race
was tactical and the field was big (21), and I didn’t have the kick
needed. I picked up 2nd place in 4:26.1 with splits of
67/67/68/64.
