2015 Adrian Martinez Memorial-4 June 2015, Emerson Playground, Concord, MA (Amended Results)

Peter Thompson, one of those wonderful people who inhabit our fair sport, emailed me earlier this evening. He wanted me to post the amended results from the Adrian Martinez meeting. It was a task I do with pleasure.

In one of Kenny Moore’s stories for Sports Illustrated in the 1970s, The Long Blue Line, he related a conversation between Frank Shorter and himself. It was after the Munich terrorist attacks, and Moore had noted that perhaps the sport needed to return to small meets, held in quiet, secluded spots.

Such is the Adrian Martinez Memorial. A labor of love by the community and the company that supports it, the meet is about friends running, talking about running, celebrating running, and going away with a better feeling than which had one arrived.

I told the meet director, Jonathan Marcus, my new friend, that I gave up going to Rome DL to see the meet.

That was true. But, there are no regrets. Seeing Nicole Tully run to win, and Reed Connor (On Wisconsin!) take the 5000 meters was a wonderful evening.
