No hogwash--Beauchamp and Genovar win at Swine Time

Evan Beauchamp leads Chip NixA stone monument at the Swine Time fairgrounds in Climax, Georgia proclaims that the Swine Time festival dates back to 1975. The annual Swine Time Run doesn't go back that far, either as the 5K that it is now or the 10K that it was before. But both the festival and the run were going strong on 30 November 2013. That morning Evan Beauchamp of Smyrna, Georgia, was the fastest of 133 finishers of the 2013 Swine Time 5K, edging Bainbridge's Chip Nix 19:54 to 19:59. Al Whately of Cairo, Georgia, was the first master runner in the 3.1-mile race, finishing fourth in 20:47. Bainbridge's Julie Genovar was the first woman across the finish line, placing 14th overall in 23:36. Nancy Palmer of Oviedo, Florida, was the top woman master, running 25:36.


Chip Nix and Evan BeauchampAustin Kelly of Havana, Florida, set the early pace. By the time the runners reached the unpaved section of Handville Road, though, 800 meters into the race, Chip Nix had taken the lead. Nix continued to hold the front spot as the race headed north on Salem Church Road toward the turnaround at the halfway point. When the runners started the trip back, Evan Beauchamp had moved into second. At three kilometers Beauchamp was just three seconds behind Nix. Over the next kilometer, Beauchamp closed that margin. With less than a kilometer to go, just after turning back onto Handville Road, Beauchamp passed Nix. Nix chased Beauchamp all the way back to the fairgrounds, but at the finish line it was Beauchamp over Nix, 19:54 to 19:59. Gareth Pyle of Thomasville, Georgia, was third in 20:41. The first master runner, Al Whately, was fourth in 20:47. Tallahassee journalist Arek Sarkissian took fifth in 21:35.

Julie Genovar and Rosalie White
Former Thomasville High (c/o 2013) cross-country runner Rosalie White led the women at the turn from Handville Road onto Salem Church Road, one kilometer into the race. At that point, Julie Genovar trailed White by seven seconds. Half a kilometer later White's seven second lead was gone and Genovar was in front. Meanwhile, master runner Nancy Palmer had moved up into third. Genovar held the top woman's spot for the rest of the race, winning in 23:36. Palmer closed on White, but White hung on to take second in the women's standings, 24:17 to 24:22.

Hough and Miller fly to Thanksgiving Day wins in Valdosta

Wild TurkeysValdosta, Georgia doesn't fool around with cute names like "Turkey Trot," "Pilgrim Prance," or "Dressing Dash" for their annual Thanksgiving Day road race. Quite straightforwardly, it's called the Thanksgiving Day 5K. Winning the 28 November 2013 edition of the race in 16:55, the fastest time at the event since 2009, was Brandon Hough--marathoner, Air Force Academy alumnus, and native of Panama City, Florida. Hough finished over 200 meters ahead of the runner-up, Ryan Kelly. Lake Park's Kelly ran the 3.1 miles in 17:54. Dylan Rogers of Valdosta finished third in 19:01.


Finishing right on Dylan Rogers's heels in fourth place overall, Erin Miller of Columbia, South Carolina took the women's title. Miller's time of 19:03 set a new women's record for Valdosta's Thanksgiving Day 5K, breaking Ashley McGee's 2009 mark of 19:20. Local schoolgirl Makenzee Page was second in the women's standings, placing tenth overall in 22:20.


In master runner competition, Valdosta's Tom Phillips was the first male master, outrunning Rick Mazurkiewicz 21:09 to 21:35. Phillips and Mazurkiewicz finished sixth and seventh overall. The top female master in the race was Valdosta's Debbie Green; Green was the third woman finisher, placing 13th overall in 22:36.


101 athletes finished the race. Timing and finish line services were provided by A Course/Line, LLC, of Valdosta, Georgia.

Seitz and Rosen speed through Southwood to Turkey Trot 15K titles

Joshua SeitzLong before anyone else arrived in Southwood for the Tallahassee Turkey Trot, there were people out there getting ready for the races. Setting up timing equipment. Stocking water tables. Delivering 56 portable toilets. Oh, and marking the course.

"I'm still sore from bending over to draw arrows on the road," said Bill McGuire after the last runner had left Southwood.


McGuire's diamond dust course markers will be gone with the next rain. But for a few hours on Thanksgiving morning, Nov. 29, those arrows were appreciated by almost 5,000 athletes trying to find their way around Southwood in one of the four races of the 38th annual Turkey Trot.


Gulf Winds Track Club's 2013 Tallahassee Turkey TrotAfter the one-mile fun run at 8:00 AM, the three longer races--15K, 10K, and 5K--all started at 8:30 from the same starting line on Esplanade Way. In the feature event, the 15K, Josh Seitz set the early pace, leading Caleb Carmichael and five-time Turkey Trot champ Chris Lake. By halfway through the race Seitz, a volunteer assistant track coach at Florida State, was almost a minute ahead and going away, leaving Carmichael and Lake in a race for second. Seitz cruised through the second half of the Turkey Trot, winning the 9.3-mile run in 49:59, more than a quarter mile ahead of the next runner. Carmichael finished second in 51:30, with Lake third in 53:13. In fourth place at 55:05, Gary Droze was the first master runner in the race.
Sheryl Rosen and Seeley Gutierrez

On the women's side, Sheryl Rosen ran 57:11, her fastest Turkey Trot 15K yet, to win a second straight Turkey Trot women's title. It was the Tallahassee lawyer's fifth win at the 9.3-mile race in the last eight years. Behind Rosen, 2010 Turkey Trot champ Allison Eagen finished second in the women's standings with a 1:02:07, good for 17th overall. Adriana Piekarewicz was right behind Eagen, 18th overall in 1:02:22.

Stanley LintonAlso picking up a second straight Turkey Trot win, Stanley Linton led the 10K from wire to wire, running 32:38. Linton was over a quarter mile ahead of runner-up Stephen Cox, who ran 34:06 for the 6.2-miles. USC Upstate distance runner Riley Doherty, back home for Thanksgiving, was third in 34:52. Tallahassee triathlete Seeley Gutierrez ran with Sheryl Rosen till the 10K course and 15K course separated, then Gutierrez ran alone to the 10K finish line to win the women's title in that race, placing eighth overall in 38:00. Renee Cox was the second woman finisher in the 10K, coming in ahead of Kate Harrison, 41:40 to 41:59.

Bill Clift, Remy Tamer, Kevin Sullivan, Peter Wood, and Stanley LintonWith the 15K, the 10K, and the 5K starting together, you'd expect the athletes in the shortest race up front. True to those expectations University of North Florida freshman Joseph Garcia, the early leader in the 5K, had everyone in the three races chasing him--more than 4,000 runners--as he raced up Shumard Oak Boulevard. Unfortunately for the Lincoln High alumnus, he was setting a pace he couldn't handle. Shortly after the mile mark, Kevin Sullivan of Capital City Runners passed Garcia, and that was the race. Sullivan went on to win the 3.1-mile race in 15:28, the fastest road 5K in Tallahassee this year. Remy Tamer and Peter Wood also overtook Garcia, finishing second and third in 15:56 and 16:24. Garcia was fourth in 16:28. Halfway through the 5K, Emily Ness of Capital City Runners led the women's competition in the race, with Lisa Johnson only four seconds back. Ness couldn't be caught, though, and beat Johnson for the title 18:36 to 18:45.

Wakulla High School cross-country teamAmong the volunteers on the course, the Wakulla High cross-country team staffed a water table out near the seven-mile mark of the 15K course. It wasn't part of the 10K course, so the Wakulla crew never got to see their alumnus, Stanley Linton, race by. Nevertheless, Linton trekked out there after the race to help his alma mater hand out water to 15K runners. Some run, some volunteer. A few do both.

FSU vs UF track meet, 2 May 1981

Larry Green, John Rogers, Keith Brantly, Herb WillsOn Monday, 25 November 2013, Brett Hoffman shared a photograph from over thirty years ago showing a group of Florida State and University of Florida athletes racing on FSU's Mike Long Track. After some grumbling back and forth, a few of the Old Men of Florida Distance Running determined that the picture showed Larry Greene, John Rogers, Keith Brantly, and Herb Wills (yes, me) running in the 5,000 meters at the Florida State vs. Florida dual meet on 2 May 1981.


Very appropriate for this picture to surface five days before the annual Florida - FSU football matchup.


The track meet between the Seminoles and the Gators used to be an annual affair as well. I knew that it had been going on long before I had arrived at Florida State in 1978, probably for decades. FSU track and field had only been around for 30 years or so, but that much history seems like all eternity when you're college age. It was also true that FSU had a winning streak in the series when I started running with the Seminoles. By the time the 1981 meet rolled around, we had managed to extend that streak with wins in 1979 and 1980. The pressure was on to add another year. Never mind that we had finally managed to defeat UF in cross country earlier in the academic year. Head coach Dick Roberts called a team meeting to make sure we knew how important this was. This was a big deal in itself, because we didn't have many team meetings--maybe one more each season before the conference meet. Coach Roberts, though, was never the man to settle for finishing behind the Gators. In anything. We would beat them in every sport, then make sure we got better parking spots than they did at the grocery store.


I'm not sure how things turned out at Publix in 1981, but FSU outscored UF at the annual dual meet that spring, 85 to 69. Five of those points were mine, as you can see in the results below. You might also find a few other familiar names, depending on how familiar you are with the history of track and field in the Sunshine State. Walter McCoy, already an Olympian, is listed in a couple of events. I've already mentioned Keith Brantly. On that Saturday afternoon in 1981, Brantly hadn't yet run a marathon, but eleven years later he would make the U.S. Olympic Marathon team.


While going through the results I found a couple of obvious errors that I couldn't correct, and I may have introduced one or two more mistakes when I transcribed the document. I hope that won't prevent you from enjoying these results from the attic.
