Mackey takes Miwok 100K in Record Fashion!

May 4 2008, 1:13 pm

Once again, we nailed the winners on the odds list. The big winner was Jon Olsen running second with his 9-1 odds. Nice run Jon, he’ll be a force to reckon with at the WS track meet. Mac Daddy ran a 7:53…16 minutes faster than Lon Freeman’s record which was set last year at 8:09. It’s scary to think Carl Andersen’s old record of 8:22 is now 30 minutes shy. Will Mr. Mackey run Western? Now we are all wondering. Third went to Geoff Roes at 8:35. Scott Jurek came up one slot late for the auto entry at Western States running a PR at 8:38. If Hardrock gets cancelled due to snow, Mr. Jurek should automatically be let in Western…we would think it’s a no-brainer. Lewis Taylor ..8:42, Erik Skaden and Topher Gaylord…8:50 each, rounded out the top 7.

On the Women’s side, the odds were on the money, at least for the top 2. Kami Semick wins the women’s race with a 9:13,comfortably ahead of Beverley Andersen-Abbsat 9:42. Full results found here http://www.run100s.com/results/wmw08.htm
