CMS 15km USATF championship history


CMS history – USATF NE 15km championships

The 15km (9.3 mile) distance has rarely been contested in the Grand Prix.  This year marks only the ninth time the Grand Prix has included a 15km.  The distance was part of the GP from 1985-1991, then not included again until 2014.  In 1985 there were two 15k’s, the Butternut 15k (Great Barrington, MA) and the NEAC Women’s 15k in Wellesley.  In 1986 the Tewksbury “Run your turkey off” hosted.  In 1987 the selected race was the City of Worcester 15k.  For the years 1988-1990 the Wilton 15k played host and in 1991 Douglas Vending/Juice Bowl (Webster, MA) did.  The 15k returned to the scene in 2014 when the Green Mountain Athletic Alliance hosted the championship in Burlington VT.  None of the races are currently contested.  The CMS open team has won five times with GLRR and WRT both taking one victory.  CMS has the team record with a 3:57:42 from 1987 which works out to five guys running 47:32 (5:06 pace).  GLRR has four wins in the master’s category and the CR of 4:20:07 (5:35 pace).  CMS has two wins and GMAA has one win.  Senior teams were not contested in the “early” years.  The BAA has two team victories in the 50+ and GMAA has one.  CMS individuals have been crowned New England champion three times.  Wayne Jacob (47:13) 1985, Eric Morse (45:48) 1990, and Rick Doiron (46:31) 1991.
