NATIONAL 10KM RACEWALK TEAM CHAMPS

On June 2, the Shore AC racewalk team took to the pavement of Niagara Falls for the National 10km Racewalk Championships for Senior men and women. In hot, humid conditions, the walkers faced eight loops of the 1250m course on Goat Island. Rich Luettchau walked an excellent 47:53 for third place to lead the Shore AC team to victory. Many walkers slowed in the second half, but Rich was strong the whole way through. John Soucheck contributed a 52:01 in 8th, 2nd M40-44 and Dave Talcott won the M45-49 in 55:30. Shore totaled 2:35:24 for the 3 man team. Pegasus from Michigan (2:44:43) edged out Niagara Walkers (2:45:07) for 2nd. Matt Boyles took the men's win in 42:48 with Olympian Teresa Vaill the women's champ.
