The weather featured early morning sunshine with temps around freezing. Despite
the cold temperatures, we still had a good crowd of 69 show up to run the November
Nielson Challenge.
In fact, the Nielson Challenge has gone international, as we had one participant
from Toronto, Canada run today. Bruce Trigg, of Toronto, arranged a suprise trip
for his wife to attend a James Taylor concert in Colorado Springs. His wife didn't
know where she was going or what they were doing until they arrived in town. Bruce
also did his homework and found out that there was a race this weekend. We invited
him to come back again next month, but he said he may not make it.
Another special participant today was Terry Purvissmith. Terry was the winner of the
first 3 Nielson Challenge races, which he thinks was in 1974. Terry was wearing a shirt
from those early Nielson Challenge races, when the club was named Pikes Peak Track Club.
Today's winner was Jessica Barden, as she was a whopping 3:19 under her handicap. These
youngsters just keep getting faster and faster. Congratulations, Jessica! We do have
a shirt for you.
This was the last month of the 12-month yearly cycle for the Nielson Challenge. The
winner for the 12-month cycle is Dean Buck, as he has 2 wins over those 12 months.
Please join us again in December, as we do it all over again.
