Dutchess County Classic


The Gunkers journeyed across the river for the Dutchess Classic Half-Marathon last weekend, as most of the fall marathon crew aimed for their last major tuneup before heading up to Albany or down to New York. C-Boy once again led the way for the team, running 1:21:17 for sixth overall, and second master. This was the 412th consecutive half marathon that Chrissy has run between 1:20:00 and 1:22:00.

Kevin Roach ran a strong 1:27:43, finishing 24th, and showing that his preparations for NYC are right on target. Anne Gullickson was close behind; her 1:29:30 placed her 29th overall, and third among women. (The womens' top three of Grace-Seigh-Gullickson being the easiest thing to predict since...I have no idea. Someone finish that joke for me, I'm too tired to think of a punchline.)

Other Gunkers:
34. Jeff Feinsod 1:29:53 (3rd place 40-44)
35. Mark Mulpeter 1:29:59
44. Fred Stewart 1:31:23 (1st 60+ Great job Fredo!)
57. Kurtis Nordahl 1:33:11
60. Rich Edwards 1:33:54 (2nd 60+)
132. Doug Heller 1:44:45 (the comeback continues)
