Reid’s win was actually in the 60-64 category, with a time so blistering it would have taken 2nd in one age cat down and 6th in two cats down!

Actually, the flying 200 meter time trial is not a championship event. They are used to seed the match sprints. Jon did qualify with the fastest time, though. And Reid Schwartz’s time trial was the standing 500m.

I continually say it and I’ll say it again, I think Northbrook has one of the best weekly track programs in the country.  We have great talent here that goes largely unnoticed.  More people (road racers) should try it out! 

Up next, Elite Nationals.  I think we have 10 people going this year.  It will be great!
