DC Road Runners Club / Potomac Valley Track Club
Indoor Track Meet - Sunday, February 11, 2001
Thomas Jefferson Community Center, Arlington, Virginia

    A most amazing thing happened at the last of three indoor track meets held this winter at Thomas Jefferson Community Center in Arlington, Virginia:  The Charlotte (NC) Flight Women 30-39 team set two pending American indoor track records.
    The women's team (Barbara Cress, Darnella James, Liz Johnson, and Monique Martin) ran 5:29.9 in the 4x400-meter relay and 2:14.9 in the 4x200-meter relay.  No previous American indoor record existed for women's teams 30-39 in these events. <PHOTO: Cress, James, Martin, Johnson> <PHOTO: Martin and friend>
    Eric Kweder ran two winning performances in the Elite Mile (4:30.8) and 3000-meter (9:12.3), a few steps ahead of Jared Prunty in both races.  At age 50, U.S. Navy Admiral Paul Ryan ran the fastest masters mile of the day in 5:05.9, and Sascha Scott ran the fastest mile among women in 5:31.5.  Liz Speegle won the women's mile in 5:36.  Marine Bret Schmidt won the masters' mile in 5:13.1.
    The meet was sponsored by DC Road Runners Club and Potomac Valley Track Club, Runners World Magazine, and Metro RunWalk (formerly Fleet Feet Sports), in co-operation with Arlington County Department of Parks, Recreation, and Community Resources.  Volunteers included Craig Chasse, Sharon Good, George Gunn, Ari Guttman, Terry Hamilton, Kay Hickey, Tom Nowicki, Robert Premo, Richard Rhoads, Don Riggs, James Scarborough, Pamela Wusthof, and meet director Jay Jacob Wind.
