Presented by SEMO TRI TEAM

27 November, 2014

Cold blustery day for this event.  Temperatures dropped a couple of hours prior to the start of the race and made all of the underpasses and bridges slick.  Pfau and Kear led all runners to the turn-around point then proceeded to kick up the pace a notch.  Matt Pfau showed his famous "kick" in the final 200 meters and took the overall win with Daniel Kear just a few tics back.

2014 NCAA D1 Midwest Cross Country Regional

November 14, 2014 -- Bradley University, Peoria, IL (Results @ branchsportstech.com: http://branchsportstech.com/2014_Meets/xc/11-14-NCAAD1MW/Web/Timetable.php?EID=a4bec43875994e508ced116827892d92)

The Midwest Regional XC meet was held in Peoria, Illinois on the local golf course near Bradley University.  The SIU Salukis brought both teams to the event in attempts of qualifying individuals and testing themselves against the other strong teams. 

The men's race consisted of 29 schools.  SIU placed 8th overall in the team race which was good for top billing for the five MVC schools participating.  The MVC teams took the 8-12 team positions and had a good showing in the overall field.

SIU was paced by Oscar Medina, Michael Castel and Juan Carrera.  These three runners all finished in the top 35 and Oscar earned All-Midwest Region honors with his 23rd place finish. 



SIU Men's Results:  10,000 meters

1. Oscar Medina - 23rd with a 30:41
2. Michael Castel - 33rd with a 30:49

5. Evan Ehrenheim - 107th with a 31:48
6. Nick Schrader - 111th with a 31:50

SIU Saluki Early Bird

Carbondale, IL -- August 29, 2014 (Results @ http://www.siusalukis.com/sports/c-xc/recaps/082914aac.html )

CARBONDALE, Ill. -  The Southern Illinois cross country teams opened the 2014 season on Friday with the Saluki Early Bird meet. The men defeated Indiana State, 23-32, while the women fell to ISU, 32-23. Both teams competed in separate 4K races.

The meet opened with the women's 4K, which saw five SIU runners finish in the top-ten. Senior Tori Parry led the charge for the Salukis, finishing second with a time of 14:45.77. Sophomore Shannon Effron finished two places behind Parry, finishing fourth in a time of 15:06.95. Senior Lacey Gibson, freshman Allie Sweatt, and senior Allison Gallo finished seventh, ninth, and 10th respectively for SIU.
 

Head coach David Beauchem was pleased with what he saw from his women's team and was glad to see his underclassmen perform well in their first collegiate meet.

"I thought it was good overall," said Beauchem. "We came out and ran our freshman. I thought that Shannon, Allie, Claire (Darnell), and Hillary (Merrill) all had pretty good races for freshmen in their first collegiate meet. They really raced better than they had been training."

The men's team had a strong showing, with all five runners finishing in the top eight. Senior Michael Castel earned his first win as a Saluki, winning the 4K race with a time of 12:03.39. Junior Juan Carrera kept pace, finishing second in a time of 12:05.21. Senior Matt Hazel took third, crossing the finish line in 12:08.92. Senior Cole Allison and junior Evan Ehrenheim finished sixth and eighth, respectively.

"Mike came in and won his first race with SIU, and he has not raced cross country in two years so we really had to get the rust off of him," said Beauchem. "Juan ran steady like he always does and Matt came out and ran great and really stepped up in the top three. It was a good opener to have the men get the win."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Several of the women's and men's starters were held out of this first competition and most will begin their season at the upcoming SIU Invitational on September 20th.
 

The Saluki teams have both been tagged in the recently released 2014 USTFCCCA Pre-season polls.  The men's team is ranked 11th in the always tough Midwest Region.  The Saluki women are ranked 4th in the Pre-season poll.  The MVC each have four teams ranked in the top 15 in the Midwest Region thus giving credence to the overall depth and quality of the Missouri Valley Conference.  Illinois State, Loyola-Chicago and Bradley Universities all have both their men's and women's teams included in the first D-1 rankings.

Midsouth Championship Marathon / Half Marathon

Wynne, AR -- November 2, 2013 (Results @ Stearns Race Timing: Marathon: http://www.stearnsracetiming.com/Results/2013/11-2%20wynne/full%20overall.txt
Half Marathon: http://www.stearnsracetiming.com/Results/2013/11-2%20wynne/half%20overall.txt


Several members of the Cape Girardeau running community ventured down to Wynne, Arkansas for the 15th annual Mid South Championships Marathon/Half Marathon.  I had heard from several people that this was a good race which, in addition to being certified, also had great course support and post-race amenities.  The price of this HM and full marathon are also a fraction of the price of most of the larger events in the Midwest which is also a big plus.


We were greeted by a nice 49 degree 8:00 a.m starting time temperature with a light wind.  Approximately 450 people toed the line for the two races which were ran simultaneously.  This is an interesting race due to the fact that everyone starts together as well as it being an out-and-back course for both distances.  At the respective turn-around points each competitor can see exactly how the race is shaking out both in front and behind of them.

The leader went out at 6:10 for the first mile then settled back into a more comfortable pace as he was running the full marathon.  Hammes and Brandon Shemonia were hanging back several seconds behind the leader until the mile mark then Shemonia, who was making his HM debut, decided to start pushing the pace a little more.  He was running his first 13.1 mile on feel as his garmin had decided not to work.  This would make his race a little more interesting.

Shemonia hit the 6.5 mile turnaround in a little over 36 minutes and chatted with the "old man" on his way back.  Hammes hit the turnaround point several minutes later and, when turning around, saw a familiar face about 25 seconds behind him.  Leah Torvillson, Arkansas native and multiple time Olympic qualifier at the marathon distance was rolling toward the HM turnaround point.  I looked back after running for 25 seconds to see if Torvillson was going to keep running past the HM turnaround or if she would be blowing by me in the near future.  She continued on and ended up being the overall marathon winner with a time of 2:43:xx and looked like she was out for an easy jog as she finished her last 200m in the high school stadium.  She is an incredible distance runner.

Brandon Shemonia ended up leading the HM group to the finish line despite taking a slight detour toward the end of the route and running an extra 3 blocks.  Brandon's 1:15:32 finish time was impressive based on his current training and he is already looking forward to the day when he can again compete at the HM distance.

Andy Johnson and Chellie Jannin, two of SE Missouri's elite marathoners, both finished strong races in windy conditions and took home 2nd place OA plaques.  It was a good day for many of the SE Missouri runners and this is a quality race which is very well run with fantastic course support.  It also features one of the best post-race meals I have ever been treated to.  Kudos to all those who made this race an enjoyable experience.

Run for the Wall 5K

Jackson, MO -- October 12, 2013 (Results @ Cape Road Runners: http://www.caperoadrunners.org/results.htm ) 

 

Vet Motorcycle Escort prepares to lead the field of 35 from the starting line.

 

 

 

 

Front runners take charge early: L to R -- Paul Schell (3rd OA), Jay Townsend (2nd OA),
and Overall Winner Kevin Hammes.

The Run for the Wall 5K was added as a Grand Prix race this year.  A small but enthusiastic group ventured to the starting point of the race and were led across hwy 61 and into the city park.  The veterans on their motorcycles peeled off just past the one mile mark of the race and left the runners to negotiate the rest of the race solo.  As we moved up Washington Street and weaved our way toward Greeensferry Road, each runner had to traverse several challenging inclines.  Once the competitors moved onto Francis Drive near the 2.5 mile mark, most of the "hard" work was completed and much of the finish was a downhill treat.  The finishing clock was located just inside the entrance of Brookside Park and each runner was able to track their time for the final .10 miles of the race.  Good race for a very worthy cause.

33rd Annual City of Roses Half Marathon / 5K

Cape Girardeau, MO --  September 15, 2013 (Results @ Cape Road Runners:  http://www.caperoadrunners.org/results.htm )
 

The 33rd running of the City of Roses Half Marathon/5K races were contested on Sunday, September 15, 2013.  The weather gods must have decided to give the competitors a break following their 2012 water-logged races as the day dawned with a crisp morning temperature of 51 degees with a negligible wind.  The author has competed in many COR half marathons/5Ks and the 2013 edition was as good as he can ever remember.
 

The half marathon race took on a different flavor this year.  The usual 30-under speedsters were not in attendance thus providing an opportunity for the veterans of the road races as well as some of the newer distance runners in the area to shine.

Overall winners of the 2013 City of Roses Half Marathon were Kevin Hammes and Liz Beck with finishing times of 1:21:05 and 1:35:30, respectively. 

Overall Winner: Kevin Hammes.

Female Overall Winner: Liz Beck with the Southern Illinois ageless wonder Gary Holda. 

The top 5 men finishers all came in under the 90 min mark and included several of the local up-and-comers in the distance events including Andy Johnson, Daniel Kear and Ross McFerren.  These guys are training hard and I look for each to continue posting impressive times in the half marathon/marathon distances in the future.



Second Overall: Andy Johnson.

Third Overall: Caleb Zustiak.



Fourth Overall: Daniel Kear.  

Fifth Overall: Ross McFerron.

The top 5 women were an eclectic bunch with placers in their teens as well as the Master's categories.  All of the top 5 women completed the course in 1:43:09 or better.
 

Second OA Female: Jennifer Perkins.



Third OA Female: Jenna Griffith.



Fourth OA Female: Zhao Ni Dirnberger.
 

 













Fifth OA Female: Chelli Jannin.

Master's Winners:  Mark Bochantin and Carol Winter were the Master's Champions with finishing times of 1:30:23 and 1:47:17.

Masters Winners: Carol Winter and Mark Bochantin.


Two elite wheelchair racers also raced the half marathon course.  Local favorite Zach Young lined up against Memphis, Tennessee's John Payne and they both impressed the crowd and runners with their tenacity during the hilly middle portion of the course.  Zach crossed the finish line in 1:13:27.  John followed shortly in 1:16:38.



Zach Young conquers the hill at Veterans Parkway.

The 5K route remained the same as in 2012 with an out-and-back trip up the Osage Trail north with the turn around point in the Walden Park subdivision.  The half-marathon route had been changed and now took the runners for an extended tour of the county roads north and west of Cape Girardeau.  The starting and finishing points for both races were the Osage Center parking areas as the Cape Road Runners had their Jaguar timing system set up on the west side of the Osage Center.

The 5K winners were Paul Fliege and Lisa Georger who completed the course in times of 18:27 and 21:44 respectively.  Both competitors are "known entities" in the running community and Paul was using this race as a tune-up for his upcoming marathon race in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in early October.
