Sorry to report that Paul Noreen, a Minnesota Masters great, has passed away from a heart attack at age 78. Paul collapsed a few days ago, and he never regained consciousness. He held many Minnesota Masters records and a couple of National age group records (since broken). His age 40+ PRs were: 31:10 for 10k and 2:27xx for the marathon. He also raced well at 15,25 and 30 kilometers. He was a great High school coach (Hopkins,MN), having coached Olympic Marathoner Bob Kempanin and Minnesota hs 880 yd record holder Tim Turnbull (1:51). RIP Paul
