Friday Night
5 Mile Coffee O Results

Stormin Mike Takes Coffee-O-Five

The calendar said mid February, but it was a spring-like night for
the Coffee-O-Five runners this week. Twenty-nine runners enjoyed a
perfect 45 degree night. It was a very impressive turnout considering
many of the regulars were either home recovering from last week’s 20
mile road race on Marthas Vineyard and others were home resting for this
week’s Hyannis Half Marathon/Marathon.
Leading the way this week was “Stormin Mike Norton.” Norton
started out very slowly but unleashed a couple of five and a half minute
miles in the home stretch. With his lethal kick he stormed by at least
seven or eight runners on Surf Drive. Ulandt Kim followed closely on
his heals and finished just 6 seconds back in second. Mike Ouimet edged
Tim Lynch of North Kingston Rhode Island by 13 seconds to take fourth.
John Babington of Cambridge finished just out of the top five in his
first Coffee-O-Fiver of the year.
Rich Gotti who runs for Sandwich High School set the early pace for
2 miles before fading at the end. Hopefully he saved enough energy for
Sunday’s Hyannis Marathon, as the 18-year-old speedster hopes to qualify
for the Boston Marathon at the race.
The womans winner was Juliette White, who is yet another of the
many runners who occasionally participate in the race from the SEA
school in Woods Hole. Ms. White, who hails from California, got lost on
the course last week. Despite spending a couple of afternoons this week
running the course in daylight she managed to miss the final turn in the
darkness and had to tack on an extra quarter mile to the run. Her time
was still good enough for first, as she edged Sharon Napier and Abby
McGuire by a couple of minutes. An ailing Lauren Johnson-Lavender
hacked and coughed and sneezed her way to a time of just under 50
minutes in her Coffee-O-Five debut.
The Coffee-O-Five is held every Friday night at 5:30 from Town Hall
Square in Falmouth. There is no entry fee for this self-timed event and
all runners are encouraged to participate.
