Looking back: November 1987

35years ago
My only two races in November of 1987 were the New England championships and the U.S. championships.  On the 15th I ran a “part XC but mostly roads” NEAC championship in Marlborough, MA.  I ended up placing third in 29:57.  Two weeks later I (barely) cracked the top 50 at the TAC championships on a long (10.3k) course in Van Cortland Park.  I took 49th in 31:42 in a field of 500 on a cold 40 degree day.
