Looking back - January 1997

 1997 – 25 years ago

This year started well but ended with me out with a stress fracture that I continued to run on until it broke (putting me out for most of the year).  I still have the screw in my foot.  I kicked off the new year with a win back at the Freezer Five running a 26:51 in snow and 15 degree temperatures.  A week later I was up at Dartmouth where I won the 5,000 in 15:06.  Two weeks after that I closed out the month with a win at the Boston Prep 16 mile in a course record 1:28:49. Teammate and training partner Byrne Decker and I raced together through 13 miles where I was able to gap him and then hold on for the win.
