Yeah, I've seen Leal train a couple of times. And I believe he raced at a Chabot Allcomers.
ReplyDeleteYong-Sung Leal's name was definitely the first name that popped out from the results. Definitely one of the all time greats from NCS.
ReplyDeleteCan't forget about Brett Gotcher. Went to Aptos and then Stanford I believe..
ReplyDeleteHere's who else I saw in the top 50. I'm sure I missed some though.
Jake Schmidt formerly of Redwood, went to Washington - 8th in 28:51
Robb Van Wyck formerly of De La Salle, currently at St. Mary's College - 11th in 29:31
Joey Nunes formerly of Livermore, currently at CSU Stanislaus - 14th in 30:32

That's who I noticed in the top 50.

ReplyDeletei hear yong-sung might make a run for the olympic trials...

Wharf to Wharf is my favorite road race! Great job to everyone who ran and sorry if I missed your name or got your information wrong.
Perhaps next year Small will make a return to the Wharf along with Steve Moreno?

ReplyDeleteex-Gunn, currently running for Pomona.
I think one of the most impressive results has to be former Saratoga HS runner Katie Nast finishing high up in the race and running a very respectable time. Looks like she has improved tremendously in HS - her pace for 6 miles now was similar to her pace for 2 miles in high school!
ReplyDeleteMissed Duncan Calvert, currently at Saint Mary's High School - 90th in 34:29
