M. Hauser Wins Clamshell Gauntlet!!!
Both Hausers Set PRs In Golden Apple 5K
J. Chen and K. Horvat Storm New York Marathon
While most athletes ready to tackle the Golden Apple 5K
were at home warming their toes before the race, Marion Hauser
and her training partner Giulia Isetti (pronounced Julia) were
running twelve miles in the 30 degree Chicago weather. Marion
finished her 12 mile run with Giulia shortly before the start
of the Golden Apple 5K and still managed to break 28 minutes
in the 5K, setting a personal record. Her 27:45 in the Golden
Apple 5K despite the weather and running 12 miles in the cold
weather beforehand, gave her unanimous support from Team Gauntlet
to be keeper of the Clamshell Gauntlet. "I held my pace
steady. I wanted to run 15 miles, as Coach Pete's scheduled.
So the best way was to do 12 miles before the Golden Apple
and finish my 15 miler with the 5K. Giulia has been a great
training partner. We talk and laugh the whole time. She has
helped me tremendously, as have the rest my Team Gauntlet training
partners, including the Sanibel Somethings! I'm not sure what
I am going to do with this trophy, but I appreciate winning
it!" Marions previous 5K PR of just over 28 minutes was
at a 5K in Boston in 2005.
Other participants in the Golden Apple 5K were host Tim Kenny
who broke 20 minutes despite limited training. All we can say
is amazing! Kim Katz ran 23 minutes and was happy with her
time. Ross Hauser set a 5 second PR at 18:39 and won his age
group. Both Hausers will compete with other Team Gauntlet members
for the Clamshell Gauntlet South Trophy at Miamiman November
11th.
Kristin Horvat and John Chen were able to watch the November
3rd Men's Marathon Olympic Trial on November 3rd because they
were in New York City to compete in the New York Marathon.
They both paced themselves well with Kristin finishing in 3:40
(amazing!) and John Chen at 3:29 (double amazing!). This reporter
has not been able to contact them but will report on there
races once they are interviewed. Congratulations Kristin and
John, great races!
