Friday Night
5 Mile Coffee O Results

Blusztajn Back off Injured Reserve List

 

It was hot, humid, and muggy this Friday night for the Coffee-O-Five. It seemed more like the dog days of August than the beginning of the fall. Twenty-nine runners and a dozen walkers took part in the event this week. Jurek Blusztajn made his first return to the race since pulling up lame on Surf Drive, with a pulled hamstring muscle over a month ago. Mr. Blusztajn is one of the most rugged of the regular Coffee-O-Five runners, as he is in fourth place on the list of Coffee-O appearances. He has almost 150 finishes, which add up to 750 “Coffee-O-Five miles,” through all types of weather conditions over the past five year. The veteran middle-of-the-pack runner trotted home in 47 minutes on his still gimpy leg. Jeff List chalked up his 100th Coffee-O-Fiver and did it in style with a first place finish. Mr. List is training for a fall marathon. He finished in just under 31 minutes, which was one of his fastest five milers in a couple of months. Michelle Bianchini edged Steve Hamel for third place. Rob Flaherty may be one of the fastest M.D.s in town, as chalked up his first top five finish with a time of just over 34 minutes. Maureen Copeland dusted the women and all but three of the men as she streaked home with a time of 33:26 in her Coffee-O-Five debut. Ms. Copeland is on the womens cross country team at Allegheny College in Pennsylvania and is currently in town for the semester at sea program at SEA. Mary Olenick and Kris Tholke finished together for second place. Stace Beaulieu and Joanna York also teamed up together and finished in a tie for fourth. Ms. York chalked up a five mile personal best time of 42:20 in the process. Eillen Miskell and Terry McKee traded in their running shoes for walking shoes this week, and they led the walkers home in a brisk 35 minutes. The Coffee-O-Five is a weekly five mile run and 2.4 mile walk. It is held every Friday night at 5:30 from Town Hall Square in Falmouth. All are invited to participate.
