Our man Dave goes sub-5 indoors

Posted by simon on 1/20/2008 on simon's blog

Congratulations to YourRunner regular Dave Albo, who has just run a sub-5 minute mile at age 51.5.

Dave recently announced on his blog here that he had started training with a sprint coach to give himself some extra oomph. It's paid off -- as have the painful-looking solo time trials he's been doing on the indoor track the last few weeks.

He ran 4:59.1 in the elite 50-59 Hatshorne Masters Mile in Ithaca, New York, today (Saturday). We're looking forward to the full report.

Results are posted on Ken Stone's Masterstrack.com blog here.
