Great run by Brian Ball of Fillmore, CA. considering that he's only been on the scene now for about a year, and training in Mammoth, he's got a great future ahead of him.

maybe he was referencing latitude? LA is around 30-35 degrees, so certainly not polar

I have found a nice piece on the race in the local newspaper. Bill Khan of the Flint Journal wrote a great recap of the race.

BKahn's my neighbor and has long written about sports for the FJournal and does a terrific job w/running. Helps he does some running himself. I have him to thank for most of the stats I used for my Crim job.
Bill wrote his piece yesterday wrapped placing third overall in the 8K, first master, in 30:18. Nice work!
... wrapped AROUND placing third in the 8K ...
Probably had to run 6:06 miles to finish his stories for deadline.
Nice to see a couple former NAIA runners in the top ten with Cabada and Ball. Ball is definitely one to watch.
Good to see Cabada running well!!
