Milford High School Cross Country

Good news, bad news for Ol' Bloom at Saturday's Buffalo Stampede. Despite busting out a career best since the 1990 LFHSCC season, Bloomie took a fourth spot and failed to get a wooden buffalo (Yeah, I'm bummed, especially with all my running pals displaying those nifty bison honors.) I can't be too bummed, though. My 21:04 was 14 seconds better than this winter (Thanks for the encouragement, Chad) and nearly a minute quicker than last week. (Hey, Mallamo, I finally caught up to ya. I guess you'll have to pour it on this fall.) :) Uncle Vern got his first buffalo trophy and Dan, the Man fell a little short in the 10K. Plus, Matt Lindell ran well in his first 10K, while the wild man Tim Foster looked strong, too. Of course, some CR Riders (Jed Mountz, Kyle Luke) picked up some honors in their own backyard as well. Special Sauce Insider hears that Amy MonsterMo hit the hilly backroads of West Virginia Saturday. In the 23rd Annual Fairmont 5K/10K Run, the super MHS soph ran a 23:55 to place 2nd in her age group and sixth overall. WAY TO GO MALLAMO!
