Team in Green Fares Well at Coffee O Five

The Wood Lumber Racing Team stormed into Town Hall Square with a mission this week. The men in green placed three runners in the top five as they took first, fourth and fifth. They added a twelfth place finish as well as Mike Garry took two whole minutes off his season¹s best time. The race of the night was for fifth place as Pete Landry and Tim Jones seemed to battle neck and neck the entire way. Elbows were flying, heels were flying high, and arms were pumping as they raced down Surf Drive. In the end, it was the younger legs that prevailed and big Tim Jones, the Wood Lumber strong man, edged the sore footed man from WHOI by a scant three seconds to nab fifth place over-all. Carolyn Bird ran uncontested to win the women¹s division. Joan Pelletier won the Don Lunn Ironman Walking Award, as she once again walked the course solo. Dan Webb ran his first race as a master runner and almost ran his new age. Coffee-O regulars, Jack Carroll and Wendy Stafford, missed their first race of 2004 because the Palm Beach shuttle was just an hour late getting into town. The Coffee O Five is a weekly five-mile run and 2.4 mile walk that is held every Friday night at 5:30 from Town Hall Square in Falmouth.
