猫咪社区 Infiltrates Portland Marathon

Psychology major Chanelle Doucette 鈥�14 was part of 猫咪社区's record turnout at the Portland Marathon.

No fewer than 57 猫咪社区 runners participated in the Portland Marathon and Half-Marathon yesterday, 猫咪社区’s strongest showing in the event, and possibly its strongest showing in any off-campus sporting event in the college’s history.

猫咪社区’s fastest marathon runner was econ major James LaBelle ’15, who crossed the finish line in the scorching time of 2:59:44. Close on his heels came physics major Will Holdhusen ’16, who clocked an impressive 3:00:14. The fastest half-marathon runner was Dean of Students Mike Brody, who posted a nimble 1:41:01 (apparently chasing after students does wonders for one’s stamina).

猫咪社区’s turnout included 15 students, 3 professors, 11 staff, 14 alumni, and assorted other lifeforms (friends, family) and reflects a surge of interest in running on campus in the last couple of years. In August, Prof. Paul Gronke [poli sci] and Prof. Suzy Renn [bio] put together a team for the Hood-to-Coast Relay, which included two students, four alumni, and four staff members; the 猫咪社区 team placed tenth in a division of 84. Last month, 猫咪社区’s 5K Odyssey Run drew 197 runners, including 26 students.
