I also have run against Newell on numerous occasions and he is one tough SOB. I don't know if he can win it, but I promise you he'll be up there giving it his all. It promises to be an exciting race, good luck to everyone.

Where did you get the info on B.Tighe? I must have missed the "news flash". I havent heard anything...and also, Newell is no pussy. I have raced him a lot and he is not. He is one of the best competitors and has never been cocky one bit that I know of. I believe he knew he wasnt in shape for the outdoor 5k or 10k because he had an air pocket in his lung/chest cavity for a large portion of outdoor and was quite sick, so he missed quite a bit of training. He probably figured his best luck was in the marathon...but that is just my guess. What taylor guy are you talking about? I agree with wheatley..and also with M.Tighe, his last year in cross...he will be giving it his all. I cant wait to see how it all comes out in about two weeks. See ya there boys!
