  • Cross Country DIVISION I
    10 DIVISION I Cross Country DIVISION I 2001 Championships Highlights Title Belongs to Buffaloes: Colorado, making its 31st appearance in the championships, earned its first title by the slimmest of margins November 19 at Furman. The Buffaloes, led by three finishers among the top 20 individuals, edged Stanford by one point. Three-time defending champion Arkansas was third. Colorado had been the institution with the most team appearances without winning the team championship. The Buffaloes were second in both 2000 and 1994, and have posted 11 other top- five finishes. Jorge Torres played a major role in Colorado’s win, finishing second in the individual competition. He was 19 seconds behind champion Boaz Cheboiywo of Eastern Michigan. Also contributing mightily for the Buffaloes were Dathan Ritzenheim, the top freshman finisher in the race in fourth place, and Ed Torres in the 18th position. Cheboiywo, who had been unable to train for the last two weeks before the championships because of a hip injury and sore Achilles’ tendon, broke the course record by seven seconds.

Hall of Fame 1 INTRODUCTION The scottishathletics Hall of Fame was launched at the Track and Field Championships in August 2005. Olympic gold medallists Allan Wells and Eric Liddell were the inaugural inductees to the scottishathletics Hall of Fame. Wells, the 1980 Olympic 100 metres gold medallist, was there in person to accept the award, as was Patricia Russell, the daughter of Liddell, whose triumph in the 400 metres at the 1924 Olympic Games was an inspiration behind the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire. The legendary duo were nominated by a specially-appointed panel consisting of Andy Vince, Joan Watt and Bill Walker of scottishathletics, Mark Hollinshead, Managing Director of Sunday Mail and an on-line poll conducted via the scottishathletics website. The on-line poll resulted in the following votes: 31% voting for Allan Wells, 24% for Eric Liddell and 19% for Liz McColgan. Liz was inducted into the Hall of Fame the following year, along with the Olympic gold medallist Wyndham Halswelle.

  • NUTS NOTES Vol
    NUTS NOTES Vol. 18 No.3 June 1980 Editor: Tim Lynch-Staunton, Meadowbank, Eydens Avenue, Walton-on-Thamee, Surrey KT12 3 JP. This is the third issue of NUTS NOTES to go on sale to the general public* For the last twenty or so years it has been available to members of the NUTS on a quarterly basis, thanks mainly to the untiring efforts of Andrew Huxtable, who was editor for many years until last year. We hope this issue will be of interest to athletics fans, in particular those who like athletics' statistics, although it will not in future be entirely a statistical newsletter, and will encourage those who compile lists and other data for their own amusement to submit compilations for consideration for inclusion in future issues. T.L-S. BRITISH BEST PERFORMANCES OF ALL-TIME - 10 MILES (ROAD) One of the most frequently contested yet least documented distance events is the 10 miles. So far as I am aware, no one has previously attempted to produce an all- time list for road performances. There are, of course, certain inherent problems. It's an event which, like the marathon, is subject to considerable variation in the severity of courses; and it is sometimes difficult to establish for sure the accuracy of distance for races advertised as being at 10 miles. But there are several very good reasons for establishing a statistical record of the event. First, almost all top-class distance-runners contest it during their career. Second, it brings together trackmen, cross-country runners and marathoners. Third, it has also produced a significant number of performers who have not achieved major recognition in other events.
