Fudgcicle 5K

On January 8, Matt Germain won the first Fudgcicle 5K race of the season by posting a 16:57 in a tempo pace workout while John Rheaume finished 2nd with a time of 18:53.

Caitlyn Clark joined the fun for the 2nd race on January 15. Temperatures were in the low single digits! She took it easy in the harsh conditions with exactly 20:00 for the first woman while John Rheaume finished 6th in 19:02 and Matt Germain won it again in 17:14.





Only John ventured out for the January 22 and 29 editions of the race. He slipped a bit in the 3rd Fudgcicle race with a 19:21, but bounced back nicely in week #4 with a series best 18:41.



Thanks to Scott Casper for these great photos!

Several Sisu Project members participated in the GBTC Invitational at Harvard. Caitlyn Clark finished the mile with a time of 5:05, continuing her push to get under five minutes this season. Jamie Aubuchon ran a 2:05 in the 800 meters as well as measuring 5.34m in the long jump. Ryan Miller ran in the 3,000 meters with a time of 9:15. Nice work to all three athletes!

Recent Races

John Rheaume and Laura Rudd ran in the Hangover Classic 10K on New Year's Day. John finished 31st with a PR time of 39:27 and Laura finished 59th overall with a time of 42:29 which was good for first in her age group!

Caitlyn Clark ran the mile at the BU Mini-Meet the very next day despite automotive difficulties and still ran 5:05. She has been working hard to go under 5 minutes and since she as much sisu as anyone, we know she will do it!
