July 15, 2022 John Pond Invitational Glenbard59 Annual Run --------------- (#18)

July 15, 2021 John Pond Invitational Glenbard59 Annual Run --------------- (#17)

Exhortation (2021): Hello Class of 1959 milers. We are a week away from the 2021 version of our July 15th Invitational. This year we will dedicate the event to one of Glenbard’s and our class’s gifted runners, John Pond, who senior year finished 13th in the West Suburban Conference Meet, 9th in the Illinois District meet and 34th in the State Meet in which Glenbard came in 2nd place.           This leads me to mention that I had a singular experience yesterday when I was doing a 2 mile run on some flat streets in the neighboring town. I crossed the street and found myself running next to a cinder block wall on my right that stretched over ¼ mile when something occurred that had never happened to me before. In Southern California, we have a lot of geckos this time of year scooting a head of us and darting into the plants and yards. On my run I saw a gecko running 6 or 7 feet ahead of me on the sidewalk next to the wall. There was nowhere for him to go except straight ahead or into my path. Interestingly, we were running together about the same speed and he kept just ahead of me for 20 or 30 yards. All of a sudden he wasn’t there anymore and I looked back and saw that he had come to a dead stop on some dirt. But what occurred to me was that this seemed like a metaphor for me running a little behind John until he gave out and I said goodbye and carried on, just like we all will do this year, perhaps thinking of him, for carry on we must.           Now it is time to restate the rules [see above] as we have at least two new milers with us this year, Bob Perkins and Dave Hollinger who finished in 25th place at the state meet, seconds faster than classmates Jim Lewis, John Staedke and John Pond. Dave will be walking his mile this year as he works himself back into shape.           If I asked you all to yell out the penalty for non-compliance to Bob and Dave, I can hear “ASTERISK” ringing in my ears. The asterisk next to your name when the final results are posted is a sign of humiliation. I can’t make you wear a dunce cap or sit on the steps, but I can encourage each of you to follow the spirit of the event to avoid the dreaded asterisk. Time a measured mile. For everyone of you milers, there will be someone slower except one so don’t think of this as competition with others but rather with yourself. A quick check of previous results shows the 2010 entry for Bill Maletich:           "6:15.00 – Bill Maletich. Waking at 5:15 this AM, having coffee and toast, I started my mile walk at 5:45. Stopped at Taco Bell for a breakfast burrito and iced tea. A short time later visted Duncan Donuts for coffee and a Boston Creme Donut. Took a short nap on a park bench after rousting a wino. Continued my walk to McDonalds for an early lunch, Big Mac, large fries, and a large iced tea, and played for a while in the children's area till the manager asked me to leave. Finished my mile (or so) at around 11:30. Time: 6 hours and 15 minutes"           Linda Kellogg Pond and John’s family will be hosting a memorial celebration on the afternoon of July 16th. Barb and Gary Mutz, Beverly and John Staedke and I will be attending, perhaps Margie. Contact Linda for information if you might be able to join in. Since the family picked the 16th, I decided to fly to Nashville from L.A. on the 14th and then do my run locally on the 15th. I remembered that John used to run on the runway where he kept his plane at Fayetteville Municipal Airport across the border from Huntsville in Tennessee. I have made arrangements to run my mile in his honor on the taxi way and then I will start responding to all the emails from you other milers. If anyone wants to join me, let me know.           On your marks everyone.           Tom

July 15, 2020 Glenbard59 Annual Run --------------- (#16)

Reports:
-- Measured Mile
4:40 Eileen Quinn - Because of the warm weather and the Covid 19, I did my mile on our home exercise bike this year. My time was 4:40. It’s no doubt as we age and because of current conditions, we may all have to be more creative with how we accomplish our mile.
I know this is off topic, but I’d be interested in learning how our classmates are dealing with living in our present virus restricted society. We have been a generation blessed with potentially very full, prosperous lives. Does this make it harder or easier?
For me, it can seem that every day is “Groundhog Day” in its sameness. It’s a real challenge to not mope. It’s easier in good weather when I can get outdoors. If I get a morning walk in, it really lifts my disposition for the day. In the past, I made it a habit to regularly exercise at our community health club, but I’m not comfortable doing that now. Fortunately one of its instructors put some of her classes on line so that I can follow along on my own schedule. We have weights and an exercise bike. We also live in a townhouse with stairs which helps with exercise. We are still blessed with relatively good health.
It’s been especially hard for us to decide how to interact socially safely. We find ourselves visiting with family and friends even though it seems impossible to always be perfectly safe. I’ve also been out shopping. Fortunately, where we live most stores require masks. I’ve been doing more reading and started a project on the computer. I still have my husband which helps with the loneliness factor. And, of course, there is online streaming with every entertainment possibility and even religious services remotely. What are our classmates doing during thIs pandemic (especially those with disabilities) to stay healthy and sane? Unfortunately, life as we knew it may not be a reality for a while.

6.34.65 Neal Whitecotton - Hello classmates, and greetings to all. To the suggestion/assumption that I need/want an app, I say "app-schmap". I'm certain CAR Johnson did not use nor condone the use of an app. I have identified a measured mile, clearly marked, on a walking/biking trail here in the Lone Star State. No app required. Thank you.
Appreciated Roger's invitation prompted by Jeff, for the annual Lake Ellyn mile. I will truly miss being there next week. My best to all on the run/walk/ride/drive next week. Thanks to Tom for once again driving this effort, even as each year, the mile seems longer.
I missed the 6-minute mile I hoped for. 74 degrees 68% humidity in Boerne TX 7:35 a.m. partly cloudy. One mile on Old No. 9 Trail. time: 6.34.65. Did I mention I rode my bike?

7:10 Linda Pond - I gave up running after my Fourth Knee operation, so my mile was on my bike in hot / humid Huntsville Alabama. Time was 7 minutes10 seconds.

8:53.5 Tom Chandler - Yes, I am back on the computer after a run, breakfast and the paper, cleaning up to get the house ready for the cleaning people, and lining up how to get a 123 pound mattress in a box up the stairs when it arrives. (Take it out of the box and roll it up the stairs as it is banded and won’t come apart).
I had hoped to do some interval runs of ¼ mile and half mile on a flat neighborhood run on Sunday to see if I had any speed left as the 2 and 3 mile runs I do during the week are jogs with hills and no speed. I decided to start with ½ at full speed hoping I could build on that for July 15, and then walk ¼, run ¼, rest and run another fast ½, maybe walk ¼ and finish with a fast ¼. Basically the full speed ½ wiped out any other interval work but I had a great half mile at 4:08 with the first quarter at 1:57. I rested, tried to jog ¼ and had to walk, then continued jogging and walking to finish the first mile, rested some more and eventually turned around and ran a very slow mile back to my car. I also felt a little tug on my right hamstring so put heat on it for the last 3 days.
Today, I checked out the concrete “boardwalk” at the Redondo Beach beach and there were many more surfers than runners or bikers so I thought I could run on the measured course and not have to go back to the neighborhood. I pull the mask up whenever I encounter someone without a mask but that didn’t happen much today. My leg was wrapped in an Ace bandage and it seemed to be about right.
I had my Christmas running watch ready to go showing me distance and time as I run, and it was a perfect running day at 69 degrees, a light wind at 4 mph, slightly in my favor instead of perpendicular off the Pacific, but a surprising 71% humidity. My goal was to break 9 minutes again to keep my streak alive as I was losing ground each year with an 8:57 last year. I knew I had to start fast and hang on, but not as fast as Sunday and hit the first quarter at 2:04 which gave me an 11 second advantage to break 9. The half was also good as I held it at 4:14, or 16 seconds if I could hold the second half mile under 4:46. I gave some back at the ¾ mark at 6:37 so needed a 2:22 final quarter for an 8:59 and I had just enough left to finish at 8:53.5, actually a few seconds faster than last year, so very satisfying, clearly a display of mind over matter.

10:12 Margie Shaw Stoll - My time was 10:12. That is almost a minute slower than last year, but I am pretty pleased nonetheless. Due to a stress fracture and to Hans's last tough weeks, I had had a layoff from running of about five months. When I started back in April, I could run no more than 100 meters without stopping.
Tom, you should be pleased also because, for the first time ever, I did not cheat and you will not need to add an asterisk by my name. There was no Kenyan entourage or no son to pace me. There was nobody to call out splits, and there was no photographer. All there was was me running all by myself down Trimble Road and back again. This was the third different route in three years. It was a happy compromise between the shady but rolling hills from two years ago and the flat but sunny course from last year. Since all the organized road races and track meets have been cancelled for the summer, I kind of enjoyed this opportunity to push myself. Thanks, Tom. What would I/we do without you?
To answer your question about having found three different one-mile courses...I run until my fit bit reads .500. Then I turn around and run back until the fit bit reads 1:00. Then I stop. That makes it an out and back course...again no cheating about elevation.
I'm still chuckling about Rogers's comments to the young runners on the Glenbard track! I bet they are too.

11:41 John Staedke - I panicked when I pulled up to my usual HS track and found it locked (to keep the virus from escaping I suppose). However I located a nearby running/walking trail that is measured and “ran”” my mile there. The course was hilly but paved and not crowded. I was only passed by a few young ladies and an old guy. Temp. was 81 degrees, humidity 85%, overcast skies and a 12mph breeze. My time was 11:41. I haven’t run since I fell in April so was pleased I was able to stay upright and not have to walk.
Thanks as always for riding herd on us. We need the incentive as well as the camaraderie. I, for one, would have walked but not run this morning were it not for you.

13:54 Dave McCollum - Report from coastal Connecticut. Wearing my 50th Reunion Glenbard cap I walked (make that strode!) a mile in 13:54 in delightful weather, 70 degrees, light wind and partly cloudy. Tide was high and the streets of Rowayton were active as they have been ever since early March. People, with their children, dogs and bicycles, have come out of their zoom dens in droves to get some fresh air. Kind of fun, makes for a sociable walk every morning with our dog. All eighteen of us in the McCollum family are well as I hope you and yours are too. Maybe next year for our 80th we should do 8/10s of a mile so we can improve our times!

14:09 Jeff Baker - Just so you know I couldn’t join Roger and “windy” on the 15th. I was shall we say, a bit under the weather. However I went to the lake today, sat on the Lewis family bench, thought of my friends and of Jim’s wonderful parents, continued my walk and clocked in at 14:09. That’s about my average after 2 total knee replacements. By the way, as second baseman as a freshman, Bill Ryder (sp) was our coach.

14:10 Dave Hollinger - Somehow, I've been off to the side on this activity. I remember a few comments every once in a while over the years, but somehow never got connected. I get the idea that we're supposed to walk a mile. I do two half-miles every day on my treadmill. Does that count? If not what are the rules? Please add me to the contact list.
I'm so glad to be able to report a mile walk, with a little bit of running, with a time of 14:10. I chose Bradley Beach, just south of Asbury Park, NJ, hoping it would not be too crowded. Masks are required, and 60% comply. Temperature was 82 at 9:20 AM. Water temp was 73, but I didn't test it - You need a beach pass. Part of the population density impact in Jersey. But the beaches are well maintained and have life guards. (Last Saturday, Island Beach State Park was closed by 10 AM, because the parking lots were full. State parks are often filled early. 40 years here, and I still can't comprehend that.) Anyway, a little cloudy, the wind was NE about 10 mph, humid, but the breeze felt good.

14:20 Robert Stoothoff - Chapel Hill NC was predictably hot this morning. I did my walking mile (14 min, 20 seconds ) imbedded in my walking groups Wednesday 3 mile walk. A little faster than last year maybe due to carrying seven less pounds and the fact that, for the most part, all we do outside for fun is walk and cycle. While Covid is ruining a lot of peoples lives, either in terms of health or financially, we remain OK, and hope you do as well. Our oldest granddaughter is at Zoom, and is riding the wave currently. Son David’s restaurant in Cambria California is a study in crisis management, and we are proud of the way he has managed for the benefit of his employees and his family. Perhaps, as David McCollum suggested, we could do something “special” or just different next year when we all turn the decade on our cakes. Sixty plus years will have eclipsed our four years at Glenbard. I recall how much I enjoyed seeing the comments collected from all of us at our fiftieth. A lot of work done by the team at the time. Next year, maybe a Covid coming out period, will encourage some of us to share some additional thoughts and experiences. God bless you all and keep you and your families safe.

14:31 Roger Griffith - As John Windeguth said, he (not Neal and I this year for a change) and I did our mile on the actual Glenbard (West) track. We walked the first lap, then started jogging the second lap, and throughout the mile John and I alternated jogging and walking, based on how we felt. Ultimately, I crossed the finish line in 14:31 (last July 15, my time was 12:34; and in 2018, my time was 14:22).
Unfortunately with the Covid virus, Lombard's athletic center has been closed for about four months, so I couldn't do my usual three day a week, two hour workout. Instead I've been trying to go for a one hour walking for 4 - 5 miles every other day. But it hasn't been as good as a full work out.
However after we had 8 1/2 inch rains about a month or so ago that flooded my finished basement with 2 inches of water. I've been digging up the bricks and drain tiles I installed years ago in my backyard, with the goal of digging the trench about to 6 inches deeper than it was, and then reinstalling the drain tiles, bricks and gravel, to hopefully prevent the basement flooding from ever occurring again. So I've been completing exhaustive 3-hour upper body workouts 5-mornings a week with my retrenching work. So while my upper body is much stronger now, my jogging speed has slowed down drastically to where it was 2-years ago.
When you add in my health issues, it makes it challenging to follow the, "use or lose it rule". My multiple pulmonary embolism blood clots 2-years ago have definitely decreased my lung capacity, so I get out of breath much quicker, but like my doctor said, it could've been much worse.
Sadly, like several of my Glenbard classmates, my peripheral neuropathy in my legs has progressed quite a bit per my neurologist, so it's kind of like trying to jog with two numb feet (like being out in the snow too long in the winter). And now it's partially progressed up to the knees. While there are two tests that my two neurologists say could be done to try and determine the cause of my neuropathy, both recommended against them because of the potential bad side effects, and many times the tests aren't successful in determining the cause anyway. Even if they do determine the cause, the treatment is only about 30% successful, it's very expensive, and most insurance won't pay for it. So why bother?!
Also like some of my classmates, my heart arrhythmias, ectopic beats, a-fib, etc., have gotten worse, so we're controlling them with a couple of drugs that make me very tired, but save me for going in to have ablation of heart tissue cells.
We waited for the arrival of Jeff and Marybert but unfortunately Jeff called me in the morning and said he couldn't come, as he had diarrhea all night. And Marybert emailed me in the afternoon to say that Stan had passed away from a sudden heart attack last week, and things were just too jumbled in her life for her to come this morning to Lake Ellyn. Too bad, because John and I were really looking forward to seeing both of them at Lake Ellyn.
As John said, I spoke with a couple of Glenbard football players, and 2 different cross country runners who were there with their teammates for a workout. When I told the cross country runners we used to do 3 laps around the lake and then finish on the 50 yard line in front of the grandstands for our meets, they said they wished they could do meets that way now, but instead they run meets in a park, I forget the name, up towards Glendale Heights. As usual, Lake Ellyn and the Glenbard campus was gorgeous, with lots of joggers, dog walkers, grandparents with kids, etc.

14:59 John Windeguth - Met Roger this morning at Glenbard for our annual run (?). This was my first jog since moving up from Texas (Neil and I have exchanged locations). This was also the first time the temperature was less than 90 deg for my run. (love that Texas!) We started at 8am temperature 75 deg, (beautiful), and after dodging various cross country runners, football players, and other athletes we finally got on the track. I was afraid we would be asked to leave, but Roger kept telling everyone he was a member of the '59 cross country team and that seemed to placate all. I finished in a crawl in 14:59. (Roger was holding the stop watch!)

16:00 Teun Schoolwerth - I walked the measured mile along North Shore Road in Spofford, NH in 16.0 min. Nice day, 72 degrees, 98% humidity. The humidity was 98% when I walked, and it was threatening to rain though it never did. Humidity is now down to 50%. I don’t even have a road bike anymore. However, I do walk 18 holes on the golf course 2-3 times a week.

16:05 Pam Wildish Bosworth - I did my mile walk with a bit of jogging to speed things up, but am still way behind last year's number. This year I was on a loop path in a small neighborhood park near my house in Lake Oswego, OR. My time was 16 min. and 5 secs, temp. 70 degrees, 45% humidity at 8:40 am and a light breeze and blue skies - beautiful morning! I regularly do 3-4 miles every morning and hope that is what keeps my bad knees working! Thanks, Tom, for keeping us Glenbard '59ers motivated to be healthy and active. I too love all the updates and repartee between classmates - puts a smile on everyone's face.😊

16:19 Cliff Argue - I just returned from walking my mile at the Downtown Bellevue (WA) City Park, where I go when we are in town for July 15th each year. The Park has a loop path around it measured at 1/2 mile. I likewise wore my 50th Reunion Glenbard ball cap and a mask.
My time was 16:19, a couple of seconds better than last year. As it was noted, during the pandemic, Theo and I have been walking daily a mile or more in our neighborhood or other locations here on Mercer Island or in Bellevue, and despite seemingly eating more, I have lost 10 pounds from the beginning of the year. Conditions were great. Temperature 61 F, almost no wind (1 mph), clear skies. The weather app said humidity is 69%, but it really was not noticeable. At 7 a.m. the park was not very busy, just a few joggers and dog walkers.

17:35 Jim Lewis - Due the the virus, I took a different route this year for the legendary mile.
At 6:50am, I went to the southeast corner of 67th Street and Columbus Avenue, in New York City, and headed north along the bike path to 87th Street. It took me 17:35 minutes by walking, slightly uphill but I seek no dispensation; 73 degrees, no wind, lots of dog walkers, a street cleaner on the other side of the street, a couple of garbage trucks blocking cars on the side streets, 80% of people wearing masks, including me.
Why did I choose the bike path? Altho Central Park is a block away from the house, and normally ideal for exercise, I have found the bike path, early in the morning, has less people nearby, and I keep a careful eye on bikers going in both directions. So less virus risk.

18:04 John Pond - Last night, we went to the airport where we keep our plane and I experimented. It is extremely quiet as general aviation has been down over the past years. In the past, when I ran there, three times a week for two miles, I would run on the taxiway and noticed that the taxiway lights were 50 yds apart. So last night I started out by running 50 yards and walking 50 yards, which gradually went to run 50 and walk 100 yards. I noticed that my walking became very slow, for the purpose of recovery, and the running, jogging, was not much faster than a slow walk. So I figure that the net gain from running was negative. Now here is the bad part, time: 18min 4sec.
I know I can walk it faster. As a side note, I met another individual walking the taxiway, he said he was an EMT worker, the ambulance service is located at the airport. I told him "Stick around I may need you".
OK, the old part of the runway is 5000', it was lengthened 10 or 15 years ago, so I add 280 ft to the old part and have a mile. If I remember correctly I would walk the mile somewhat under 15 min.,it takes a fast walking pace. When I quit running in 2003, I was running 2 miles at the airport in 20 min. If only I could relive that greatness.

19:34 Mary Hanson Hirsch - Another year, another mile challenge—thanks to Tom noticing the fireworks—but 2020 presents a glitch, especially here in South Florida in “the time of COVID”. In warming up to this day, walking the wide sidewalk along the beach has been the best spot with the beach closed and few people around. Then the beach and restaurants and bars reopened, and the rest is history: we are in trouble here, and I am “of that age”, so I used a treadmill for the mile. The clock on the wall agreed with the timer on the treadmill at both start and finish, so I believe that I accomplished an honest mile in an honest 19:34–not proud of it but maybe it is better than 2019. My honest opinion: I have to work out and walk more as long as I can do it.
Tom, you have encouraged me, and I believe that CAR Johnson is looking down on you (and hopefully all of us) with pride. Cannot close without greeting Dave Hollinger who joined in this year!

19:35 Helen Moran Lemal - Please, please don’t get it into your head to do this every 6 mo.! Once a year is brutal enough.
Reporting this year from Arenas Valley/Silver City, NM. Altitude (at the house) 6,500’,time 12:05pm, temp 90-95°, humidity 18 - 22% (our phones must be accessing different reporting sites) Our daily one mile walk (Ronn does it twice a day) is what I used. It’s gravel and dirt and anything but level. From the house it drops down a vertical distance of 80-90’, turns and goes back up ? 60+ vertical with two steep sections then down, down to the road at 1/2 mile and 6,400’. I jogged most of the down hills on the out run, except where it’s too steep to jog, and walked the rest. Stopped a couple of times to get water (thank you Ronn and the dogs) and to get some oxygen into my legs. Time: 19:35 round trip. 1.o miles.
Unlike Judy, we can play tennis and pickle ball here pretty much any time of day. 90 gets hot, but there’s usually a cooling breeze to go with it. Really blows a pickle ball around, but the tennis is ok until the wind gets going around noon. Not much Covid around here, but still wearing our masks and keeping our distance. Easy to do on the tennis court (without masks) but bridge has become an on-line activity.

20:44 Jo Rice Borden - As I was doing my miles this morning. I was wondering if this is going to happen this year. What strange times! I do a fast walk. (I don’t think my body knows how to run any more.) The time for my mile this morning was 20.44. It was 98° when I started and 104° when I finished. Our monsoon humidity is just beginning to start.
In my car I found exactly where mile one is. That’s my halfway mark for my normal miles in the morning. I used the stopwatch on my phone to get me the time. That temperature was for early in the morning, not what it roasts you by late afternoon.

22:13 Patti Galligan Witt - Reporting in from Long Beach, CA on a beautiful sunny day. Fortunately for me I live near an 800 acre regional park with lots of lakes and streams and wildlife where I walk every morning. My mile took 22 minutes and 13 seconds. I wore my mask and social distanced - the new normal.

25:14 Bonnie Sporka Shableski - Thanks for taking the time to write about the history of this event, and thanks to Mary for inspiring you. Your time of 5.59 explains why this date is so meaningful. It’s a great reason to celebrate every year. Congrats!
I timed my mile walk this morning at 25.14. Walking has been even more meaningful the past six months. I always walk solo, I don’t have to wear a mask, and I can still chat with neighbors from a distance. Thanks for all you do to keep us active and connected.

57:41 Judy Smith Noren - They finally opened our pool about a month ago. I've been working my way back up to swimming a mile. Did it today. Hopefully next Wednesday there will be a lane open early AM as they have limited the number of people in the pool at a time. Have a problem of walkers in the "swim" lanes. We're at 80 degrees at 5 AM and then it climbs fast - which makes it tough on golfing at 7:30 AM.
Greeting from sunny & 85 Green Valley, AZ. After walking 1/2 mile plus getting out golf carts, I swam my mile in 57:41.
2017 - I had surgery the end of June so couldn't swim - assume I must have gotten out enough golf carts to walk a mile or more (unmeasured).
2018 - There were probably some very strong currents in the pool to slow me down - or I was just being lazy.
I was surprised that I was under an hour this year since my pool has only been open for about a month because of the virus. Every year it seems that my swim times and golf scores keep getting bigger, but I'm happy I can still do both.
I keep busy in the mornings at The Country Club of Green Valley - I live on the course. Every morning between 5:30 & 6 my sister and I volunteer to get out anywhere from 10 - 45 carts for the golfers. When we get more than 20, I have a crew to help. Then when they come in about 11AM - noon, we sanitized all the carts and put them away. We have a 7:30 AM shotgun 6 days a week and tee times for Sunday. I play golf 3 mornings - only 9 holes during the summer when the temp is in the 90s or higher. At our course, the flag stick stays in the hole and not to be touched by the golfers.
Four days a week I swim at 6:15 AM. I usually do 3/4 - 1 mile. The afternoons are spent on the computer or knitting hats for newborns at Mayos. I was suppose to go to Illinois in May / July for my granddaughters Naperville North high school graduation. It was moved from May to July 19, but it's limiting the number of spectators so I decided not to go.

-- Non-Conforming
3:25 Becky Bulleit Gelhaar - Knee issues other years but this year is back issues. Scoliosis discovered in gym class at Glenbard! 3 injections, physical therapy and I am 75% better. Now I am trying chiropractic and if that doesn’t help it will be surgery. Thanks for suggesting I could drive my car a mile!! Drive in neighborhood 3:25. Love to all my wonderful classmates!!!

9:55* Hardy Wieting - I run my miles on Sundays, as I think you might know. Last Sunday was not so good, but today is my birthday and while running I decided to use the longer stride that did me well last year. Result: 9 minutes, 55 seconds, same as last year. After that my daughter took me to King Fish House in Ladera Hills, where I had my favorite -- soft shell crabs.    *only runs Sundays

18:30 Judy Wood Talley - Well, I got out early--8:30--not as early as I planned but I walked my mile in 18:30. Even at 8:30 it was very hot and humid. My husband and I deliver the community paper in our subdivision--113 homes--and he measured it for me---1.1 mile so rather than walk as fast as I could a mile away and then have to come back, I stayed in our area. I missed my pickleball games---no one her plays much after 9--but will go to my water exercise class. So glad we are still doing this and thank you for making it so.

24:00 Diane Meinert Curran-Harrell - reporting in from Sherman, Texas: 1 mile, 90 degrees, at the park in front of our house in 24 minutes—all uphill. I returned home very slowly after the measured mile on my iPhone. I have measured the entire sidewalk for two weeks and chose this segment to report because it is the prettiest and most enjoyable. It also has the best breeze when it is 100 degrees. It is a big park.

24:00 Cathy (Ayers) Allen - I'm another one who won't be participating on the 15th - too bad but it's not a good day for me. My husband will have a colonoscopy that day - being careful as the Univ. of Mich. hospital is very good and will take care. It's a long time for the whole procedure so maybe I can slip out and do a mile walk (I'm actually able this year) So we'll see - if I do something, I'll let you know.
I went out before 8 because it's been hot here in Ann Arbor and I wanted to be fairly comfortable. It was about 70 and not humid so it was a pleasant walk. I saw rabbits, a hedgehog and lots of birds and bugs - nice walk in the neighborhood with some ups and downs, shade and trees. I didn't try to go too fast, just enjoy a mile thinking of high school colleagues. Glad we're keeping this up. I look forward to hearing about other miles and experiences.
To figure out a mile I drove the car down the street and watched the mileage for .5 mile, turned around and drove back so I knew how far to go. To time it, I just looked at my watch - nothing fancy with tenths of seconds so it's a rough time, could be a bit less. It was pretty rural - Ann Arbor neighborhoods are quite trees-y and hilly when you get away from the campus. We are near the Huron river and a couple city parks - they're not necessarily open yet but I'm glad our governor - " half-Whit, that woman from Michigan" as Trump calls her - is being careful. My husband made it through the colonoscopy fine - one of those things you have to do as an old(er) person and he has a history of colon cancer. His procedure was at noon so it worked fine to go out early in the morning.

28:20 Karen Murphy - Thank you for your shepherding of this monumental event once again! I’m so proud of all of us. I especially appreciated reading about how this all got started. I walked the Silver City high school track this morning about 10:30 AM. The scenery wasn’t particularly inspiring so I just kept walking. Elevation: 6000 feet, temperature 82°, humidity 23%, wind 11 mph, air quality: good. I was able to walk 1/2 mile in 14:10. You do the math!
The reason for walking only 1/2 mile is that I have been having severe lung problems (Pneumonia three times since last July) and chronic heart issues. I wore my mask, sunglasses and hat and carried my 10 pound portable oxygen concentrator. Does that qualify me for some kind of asterisk? And no, I won’t be able to complete my other half mile later.

32:00 Chuck Gelhaar - Mitzi and I walked 1/4 mile 4 times at 6:15 am 59* Had to stop 10 times for Mitzi to let other dogs know she was out today and one time I had to bend over and pick up a Mitzi deposit, enjoyed this 32 minutes with my

48:00 Barrie Good-Burr - Completed my 10 mile bike ride today instead of a walk. Bike trail next to my townhouse always full of interesting riders and walkers. One near miss as I crossed the road that led into the golf course. A driver ran the stop sign and came close to hitting me. He was going slow enough to hear my opinion of his driving skills, and probably also saw my finger salute. Oops, 48 minutes

2:35 Carole Stone Baumann - The weather at 10 o’clock today in Decatur Illinois was hot humid 84° at 10 o’clock. I went to the Y and walked nine times around the track for a half mile. I didn’t have to measure anything because it is posted 18 laps is 1 mile. I have neuropathy and a familial tremor, so it is safer for me to walk at the Y. My walk was interrupted for two hours and then I finished by walking in the neighborhood with my cane. The distance around the neighborhood is a half a mile measured previously. My time was 16 1/2 minutes the first half mile and 18 in a half minutes the 2nd Half mile For a total of for a total Of 155 minutes including the 120 minutes of break.

-- DNF (Did Not Finish)
Joni Paulsen Fuchs - I won’t be participating. My husband just died and I’m cocooning. Please keep me on the list, Tom, and thanks for continuing to do this.       7:30 am PST. Warm and sunny. My fitness tracker says .74 miles walking across the street in an asphalt parking lot. I had set my phone clock to 31 Minutes (I didn’t think I could walk that far), but when I looked at home, it had reset to 31 minutes. It wasn’t much more than that, though, because another timer went off, set for something else….never mind. 31 minutes plus.
I haven’t been reading all these e-mails. Not up to it. Next year I will do a mile for sure. Disregard e-mail re .74 mile.

-- No Distance Reported
Kay Hall Konopka - I'LL BE CHEERING ON THOSE WHO CAN STILL PARTICIPATE IN THE CLASSIC RUN. MY JOINTS DON'T LIKE ME ANYMORE! BUT I'LL BE THERE IN SPIRIT.

Dr. Roy David Petersen - Tom, I don’t know if I’ll be able to get up any energy between now and the 15th to ride the stationary bike. I have not exercised this past year, not that I’m necessarily lazy but that I don’t seem to have much energy. On an unrelated topic I have enclosed a picture of my wife that I took yesterday when we left the hair salon. For reasons that escape me she wanted me to take a picture of her Japanese teriyaki chicken, which I might add was quite delicious. Since she is a bit younger than me I am beginning to suspect that there may be a nexus between my lack of energy and her. This is the only excuse I could come up with on short notice.
In lieu of actual exercise, I sat on a bench at our gated community and looked at one of the three lakes (all stocked with trout) and part of the 18 hole golf course that lies beyond and thought of exercise. Why? Because just imagining you’re exercising is better than not exercising at all according to a study out of Ohio State University (keep in mind that a study may be nothing more than a fanciful thought couched in scientific terms used to generate a government grant). Researchers analyzed data from a study (this was a study of a study) of patients who had their arms in casts and half of them imagined exercise with their broken arm and the other half didn’t. When the casts were removed, those who’d imagined exercising had twice as much strength in that arm as those who hadn’t. Based on the overwhelming data from academia I imagined running a mile in slightly over eight minutes. I felt refreshed when it was over although somewhat flushed. I submit the following two photographs as concrete proof of my rigorous regimen.

Sue Wallace Burwell - I am enjoying all the chatter but no way in - - - - will find me walking as we are having an extreme heat wave 116 today and is to continue into next week. HI to all of you and will be thinking about you on the 15th. I will be sure to drive a mile to Starbucks in my air conditioned car I will think of you all We don't have monsoon weather yet but sure it is coming

Nancy Fricke Johnson - You are so great to be connecting us all again this year! I will not participate again this year, but please keep me on the list. I enjoy all of the news and comments. We really appreciate you doing this every year. Best wishes from Texas!

Steve Capel - I must report that I did not run. I hate to invoke my wife, as an excuse, but Claire went into Hospice July 1. I do not feel good about leaving for a run right now. Even a quick trip for groceries gives me pause.
We have lived in the Richmond, Virginia area for over 30 years. Most of it in rural Powhatan County. We had apple, peach, pear and cherry trees on our acreage. You had to be quick to get cherries, as the birds really homed in on them! Moved closer to Richmond as I retired. Not much in the way of monuments left in the old confederate capitol. They need a new home, for sure. Next year may find me in a better place. Still appreciate receiving the news from “the gang.”

Marybert Buethe Carveth - Didn’t remember to let you all know I couldn’t join you this morning - Stan passed away last week of a sudden heart attack, and my days since have been totally jumbled. I am with you in spirit - you had a lovely day to walk - and I’ll look forward to another chance to join you next year.

Arlene “Kirkie” Morrissey - Beautiful words and sentiments, Mary. As Dave reflected, we have a very special class - still caring for one another 60 years later. I too grieve as I hear of another friend who has passed. My prayers are with Mary Lou Grant's family, and the families of others who have passed, as well as each who are in that final journey. May all experience God's comforting presence and His "peace that passes understanding."

July 15, 2019 Glenbard59 Annual Run --------------- (#15)

Reports:
8:09 – Linda Kellogg Pond. Hello from Huntsville AL I rode my bike a mile in 8min 9 sec. I had to slow out of our driveway for a car, then passed thru 3 stop signs, 2 speed bumps, loose gravel and I think my tires need air. A thunderstorm just passed thru so not quite so hot. Good Health and Happiness to ALL!!! 😊

8:57 – Tom Chandler. Time for my report. A beautiful day with the temp at 76, humidity a comfortable 49% and a light wind at 8mph” at 10:00 at the Hyannis MA high school track. Leading up to this year’s run, I had an exhausting May with 26 straight days of travel, starting in Cape Cod, with a miserable cold setting in on May 1, followed by no running through 8 days in Normandy, Paris and Bruges, then a day on Long Island for my oldest grandson’s college graduation, followed by a fraternity reunion I organized in New Orleans, and a backward trip to SC to spend 4 days with my son and family including his 2 year old granddaughter before heading for home. Fortunately, Tom Jr. is a pulmonologist and immediately gave me an anti-biotic shot before I got pneumonia again as I did last spring. All that said, it has taken me a long time to get back into shape, but I was heartened by a trial mile two weeks ago in CA where I ran a 9:01. I have to admit, because I got a new running watch at Christmas, I was able to confirm that I had been running on a 400 meter track many of the previous 14 years and my 1600 time that day would have been like an 8:54. Now in the high humidity northeast, I took another test run on the track here on Saturday and was dismayed to have dropped to 9:23. I hoped it had to do with the humidity and 36 hour time zone change so was determined to go out strong and try to get back under 9 minutes. I know I have to start fast and then try to hang on, but I was shocked to have my first quarter at a very aggressive and unsustainable 2:01, proven by my 4:26 half. But determination set in on the last lap and I just made it at 8:56 for the mile and a nice improvement in the 1600 from 8:57 last year to 8:47 this year. I was proud to be wearing my Glenbard hat. I write all this primarily for my XC teammates for whom this event was started. As we know, at this point, we are running against ourselves and know the pain of competitive running. I know how fortunate I am and we are to be able to still run a mile at all and has nothing to do with self-aggrandizement. Over the years, it has been fun to have had some pictures shared, and as I was reminded by the addition of Margie’s photo, I was disappointed to not have thought of a selfie on the track. But as a second best I have added a picture of an endearing hug from my 17 month old granddaughter, Lucy Looney, yesterday as we were leaving from her home in Boston to our Cape Cod family home after a brother’s birthday party. Although she was encouraged by her mother to walk over and give grandpa a hug, I got about 7 or 8 seconds of bliss. In addition I am proud to include a video of Lucy who only started walking a few months ago mimicking her brothers riding a scooter. https://photos.app.goo.gl/31dnWtoTMB4tjuKH6

9:10 – Margie Shaw Greetings from Mt. Juliet, Tennessee. It is an overcast, humid day here at our weekend place 30 miles from Nashville. I ran out here last year too, but this year I found a new out and back course, a flatter, newly paved and straighter road. I did not have the Kenyan world class pace-setters from last year, but maybe that was a good thing. I was not so star-struck and intimidated. Instead, our youngest child Kevin consented to run with me. You may recall that my very first year our middle child Andy paced me and that last year our oldest child Erica was one of my pacesetters, so this year I twisted our youngest son's arm to join me. Thanks, Tom, for making July 15 a Stoll family affair! Like me, Kevin was a running late bloomer but now he wins the men's 40's division of local races. He did a good job today. My time was 9:10, an improvement of over 30 seconds from last year. I knew I could do better than 9:45!

9:45 – John Staedke.
Better than last year was what I intended,
So therefore my training runs I extended.
The day came at last,
For me to run fast,
And lo and behold, I ran like the winded.
No excuses, just slow, but glad that I and everyone else can still put one foot in front of the other. Here are the stats: Ran 9:50 at 6:35am, 69 degrees, 89% humidity, clear, 7mph NW wind.

9:55 – Hardy Wieting. Due, I think, to a fast first half lap, which I regretted for all remaining half laps, but the spirit of 59 . . .
Another factor might have been that the only other person on the track (at Soka University whose beautiful track here in Orange county is open to all) was a muscular guy in his late twenties, I'd guess, who ran with extremely long, loping strides. He passed me easily, so on occasion I tried for a longer stride.

12:34 – Roger Griffith. As Neal said, I've been working out for the past 7 months. I've been working out 3 days a week, for 2 hours each time (45 minutes of aerobics; 45 min on weights), at Lombard's new Athletic center they opened last year in Madison Meadows Park.
I'm not going into competition. Other than every July 15th, I'm only in competition with myself. I'm just trying to eat healthier; get in a little better shape; reduce my waist size; lose some weight (I've lost 10 pounds); slow the old-age decline; and improve my heart, lung, and neurologic issues. It's hard work, but I'm seeing improvement in several areas.
Today was the first day I've been able to jog an entire mile, in many years. Up until 2 weeks ago, I was only able to jog one third of a mile. My full mile time today was 12:34 seconds. That's 1:48 faster than my time of 14:22 last July 15th!!!
Who said we can't get better at our age my friends?! The "use it or lose it” adidge definitely applies to us, our brains and our bodies! Don't give up my friends, fight this aging every way that you can. None of us are promised tomorrow, so live the best today that you can.
John my friend, I beat you by 50 seconds this year. I expect you to get back to working out again, so next year our mile times will be closer.
The boy who took the picture of Neal & I below will be graduating from Glenbard West next year in 2020. It blew his mind that we graduated from Glenbard 60 years ago. He agreed with us that this is one of the most beautiful high school campuses anywhere.
Also, immediately after this I will be sending 3 emails (to all classmates) with info on the signs posted around Lake Ellyn about it's past & future.

12:52 – Gary Mutz. Mutz reporting 12:52 on the treadmill with a pleasant 76 before Yoga

13:39 – Dave McCollum. Walked a measured highway mile on Rt 43 in Hancock, MA in 13:39 at 7:00 this morning. Delightfully cool 57 degrees at 1000 feet elevation. Hancock is the farthest away from Tom's summer home on Cape Cod that one can get and still be in Massachusetts. At the end of my mile, I was 3 miles from the NY state line.

13:43 – Helen Moran. Helen Moran Lemal reporting from blisteringly hot Mesquite, NV ~1800’ altitude. On the tennis court (outside) at 6:30 am temp a lovely 80°. Three sets later at 9: 20, up to 97° - absolutely no clouds nor any breeze. Went home, rehydrated, took a nap, and then rode my bike (now 110°) to the Rec Center to run my mile indoors on a treadmill, with A/C and a fan. Ran it in 13:43! Three cheers for healed knees and hamstrings this year! We’ll likely be moved back to Silver City, NM by this time next year. Still have a home there up in the mountains at 6300’, and COOL. Great to hear everyone’s stories and successes! I brag about all of you all year!

15:29 – Judy Wood. After a busy day with my son and two grandsons, a hamburger and two beers at the sports bar, and one game of pickleball, I remembered I had to do my mile today! So I went out and about and did my best in 85 degree weather with ridiculous humidity and managed a 15:29 mile walk. Since it is 9:00 P.M. it was rather pleasant---The 99-100 degrees in the sun this afternoon was brutal--even the 8year old and 5 year old said "lets go home grandma" and we left the sprinkle park! So thanks for doing this Tom--so hate to hear of those who have passed. Keep pressing on!

13:24 – John Windeguth. I thought this morning the time between these annual runs seems to be getting shorter and my time for one lap seems to be getting longer! Was up at 6:am this morning as usual, sharing the track with another runner who is running before I get there and is still running when I leave. I don't want to say he motivates me but I get irritated when he laps me every lap I run. So anyway, I got off at 6:20 , temperature 72 on the local school track, finished at 6:33. So I am reporting a time of 13:24. I feel lucky to be part of such unusual and great group. When I tell anybody about our annual run being tied to a high school class they think its such a great idea.

14:10 – Pam Wildish. I am reporting my results from Eugene, Oregon on the bike path along the Willamette River - beautiful! Temp. was 62 degrees and high humidity at 7:30 a.m. and did my mile in 14 mins. 10 sec., mostly walking with a bit of jogging. Thanks Tom for keeping us moving and cheering on our class. It is great that you are keeping us connected and inspiring us to keep on going! All the best to Glenbard class of '59! Pam Wildish Bosworth

14:34 – Bob Stoothoff. Worked in a mile walking before Cindy and I went for our bike ride. Fourteen minutes and thirty four seconds, thankfully early and in the shade for the most part. It is steamy in the South.
My training regimen was three weeks walking a lot in Sicily and Puglia Italy. The up and down in the old cities was fun and challenging at the same time. Always good to connect yearly with you all. Our hope for all of us is an appreciation of each day we have and the courage to accept the challenges.

15:41 – Linnea Asplind. Linnea Reporting in from Solana Beach, California : 66 degrees with nice, early morning coastal overcast at 7:55 start time. I would not call it a “run” but rather a purposeful walk with short interludes of something akin to an inelegant trot on the measured mile on town streets with the usual curbs, etc., for a time of 15 minutes and 41 seconds timed on my iPhone stopwatch feature.
I have not been as active as I have been other years, as my work schedule has made time demands, but this annual event reminds me that I should get back to some regular exercise program, so thanks for the encouragement, Tom and everyone! In that regard, here is a timely article link from this morning’s NYTimes….seems appropriate on this day. (5 things one can do to keep the brain healthy) https://wapo.st/2JGjGG9?tid=ss_mail&utm_term=.13f5243b6f91
It is so great to see everyone's participation and wonderful when you check in with a comment or two! It is good to be connected! Keep on keeping on!

16:02 – Teun Schoolwerth. this morning, I walked a measured mile on North Shore Road along Spofford Lake. The road is paved and quite hilly (not flat), and the temperature was 73 degrees. My time was 16:02. Regards to everyone from New Hampshire.

16:15 – Neal Whitecotton. At the risk of tipping my hand re tomorrow's miler, I'll let you know that my training regimen has included not eating a bowl of ice cream this evening. I also did not eat french fries this evening, and did not have a 6-egg omelet this morning. With that kind of training, you can expect big numbers from me tomorrow. Or are we going for smaller numbers?? Neal Whitecotton reporting from sunny Wheaton/Glen Ellyn. Roger and I met at the boathouse 9 a.m. It was pushing 80 degrees, 60% or so humidity. So, we "ran" first, using the Hilltopper track at the football field. Then strolled around the lake after the timed, measured mile.
I am pleased to report that I captured the silver medal, finishing second. My time of 16:15:00 is not even close to Roger's gold medal run. He has been working out, and actually ran the entire mile. I tip my Glenbard cap to him. Roger will send along a photo or two. I wore a Sox t-shirt in honor of Stoothoff. If I need an excuse for being out of shape, I'll submit Judi's and my efforts of the past months clearing out our home of 21+ years as we anticipate moving before the snow flies. Long story, short: we plan to build a house and live close, but not too close to two of our daughters. They have a combined 12 acres near Boerne TX (San Antonio area). Judi and I will have our own home on the property. We look forward to warm winters, and good family times, with 8 of our 17 grandkids on the property. A very blessed time. After the past 21 years in suburban Chicago, and previous domiciles in North Carolina, and California, we head to the Lone Star Republic by Thanksgiving.

16:21 – Cliff Argue. At 7 a.m. Pacific time, I went to my usual venue, the Downtown Bellevue (WA) Park (elevation 60 feet) which has a loop path measured at 1/2 mile. Temperature 63 degrees, overcast, humidity 76 per cent, wind 2 mph. I did the two laps in 16:21. It is always fun to participate as well as read all the other reports.

16:23 – Eileen Dowiatt. Again this year I did a mile on a treadmill at our local health club, Courts Plus, in Elmhurst. I find this the most convenient, accurate and easiest on the knees way to measure my mile. I clocked in at 16:23. I think I could do better if I did more training but feel blessed that I remain in good health and am still able to participate.

16:23 – Jim Lewis. 16 minutes, 23 seconds; a perfect day on the East Hampton, Long Island, NY high school track, starting at 6:30am sharp. Siting now, about an hour later, at Main Beach, a few others on this spectacular beach, a handful of geezers on the deck where I am...now easily recognizable to me. The sea, pancake flat, begging me to spot some whales, yesterday yes, not yet today. During July and August, my morning ritual is get a donut, small coffee, and Wall Street Journal, drive 5 minutes to Main Beach, spend an hour reading and watching, then go back to reality, Today is alway an especially unique way for our classmates to share our lives through our communal mile, keep our collective cups at least half full, and work on our bright futures. Tom, 15 years ago, you had in vision to make something out of nothing, This is one of your many outstanding achievements, so Hats Off.

19:07 – Jo Rice. I did (I walk fast, but do not run) my measured mile in 19:07. The temp was 104 and the monsoon humidity was building. Thanks for doing this each year. It’s fun to see all the familiar names.

20:23 – Mary Hanson. Florida condo, sea level, lovely day outside, but no matter since I used the treadmill in the gym: nice view of the Intracoastal Waterway, so-so music of someone else’s choice.
Well, the old but not-yet-grey Mare is not what she used to be. Result: 20 minutes, 23 seconds for exactly one mile—a long way from previous years. My goal is to make a comeback, to achieve about Pam’s pace again. Never give up, as Churchill famously said many times. Love to all of you, Mary

25:32 – Bonnie Sporka. I am so impressed with all your times and love hearing all the comments. I walk and bike every day and on this date I like to reminisce with all of you. I get slower every year but I am so glad I can still get out and do things. I could care less how long it takes. (Tom, if that encourages you to reach for an adult beverage....Cheers!) My time this morning was 25:32 in southeast Virginia.

33:00 – Patti Galligan. Beautiful day! Perfect weather! Walked a measured mile in the park across the street in 33 minutes. Not very fast but very pleasant! Looking forward to seeing everyone at our 60th reunion in September. Guess we already know who has the most grandchildren. Lucy Looney just keeps getting cuter!

55:51 – Judy Smith. Reporting in from Green Valley, AZ. At 5:30 AM it was 80 degrees and 56% humidity. I swam my mile in 55.51 minutes. I try to swim everyday that I don't have to get golf carts out at 5:45 AM. My sister and I get out the carts for the 7:30 AM shotgun at The Country Club of Green Valley. I usually play 3 days a week - only 9 holes during the summer, but 18 holes when it's cooler. I enjoy all of the emails.

Prorated Mile ----------------
5:15 – Dave Petersen. Tom, congratulations to all for making it another year. My right hip, which is a little over one-year-old, did quite well on the stationary bike. I did 5.72 miles and 30.0 minutes. In other news, my wife just graduated from Georgia State University with highest honors with a degree in health sciences. The fact that English is her fourth language makes it all the more impressive to me.

5:45 – Barrie Burr. Annual bike ride results - per i watch....9.4 miles 54 minutes average heart rate 117 average speed 10.1 MPH ( short rest stop....

12:00 – Chuck Gelhaar. At 6:35am, 66 degrees from La Canada at 1856 feet overlooking Tom's home 30 miles to the south Mitzi an I walked .86 miles with several stops for Mitzi in 22 minutes. Following our early morning event we came in the house had our breakfast and went out on the patio and I got on my Life Fitness stationary bike. Mitzi got on her dog pad and watched. After 30 minutes on an uphill climb I went 2.5 miles. Mitzi was looking at me with “you are out of your mind”. Love that dog.

15:20 – John Pond. John not Linda Pond reporting in with a time of 19 min 10 sec for 1.25 miles, not the official distance but close. Tried to run some but a sports injury, running at the airport, the night Donald Trump was elected President prevented it. I know weak excuse, but maybe next year.

27:27 – Diane Meinert Curran Harrell. I was unable to send the first email to everyone so sending this one to you. Diane Meinert Curran Harrell checking in. I walked/strolled 1.1 miles in 30 minutes on the sidewalk in front of the park across from our home in Sherman, Texas. 74 degrees when I started 77 when I finished—not bad for July in Texas.

DNF (Did Not Finish) ---------------
23:00 Dave Zinn – I walked half a mile with my walker in about 11.5 minutes.

15:41 – Karen Murphy. Karen Murphy reporting from Silver City NM: I am embarrassed to report that I could only make a half mile today. After getting some blood work done at 7:30 am, trying to get an x-ray (failed because the fax hadn’t arrived), enduring a grueling workout with 30 other women lifting weights at the “Strong Women Strong Bones” class, I finally embarked on my walk. That is, after I returned three times to the classroom to borrow some sunblock and locate my lost water bottle! By then it was 11:15, 80° with a SW wind AT 8 mph, 23% humidity, sunny with a few clouds, at 6000 feet. I was exhausted even before I started.
Due to COPD, I wore my oxygen concentrator set at 2 L (I say “wore” because it’s in a backpack) and carried my water bottle and car keys. I’ll send you a photo of me at the high school track from last October, when I finally got the backpack. So I ambled my way around the track twice in 15:41.03. I couldn’t go faster because I was favoring my lower lumbar, which incapacitated me all last week after our return from a round trip train ride to Portland OR. Although it’s cloudy now at 4 PM, the temperature has risen to 93° and I’m unlikely to go out for the second half of my mile. See why I’m embarrassed?!!!! Next year I’ll use a treadmill and do my full mile. I promise. Helen, it would be marvelous if you move back to Silver;City! I’ve missed you.

Non-Conforming ---------------
Janet Whittaker. First, thanks to Neil for the surprising and enlightening article about human beavers who were responsible for Lake Ellyn. I always assumed it was a natural pond. Near enough to our house to reach on foot, Lake Ellyn successfully lured us into postponing our annual noon Christmas dinner to evening in lieu of ice skating and hot dogs.
I walked my approximate mile in downtown Louisville at 11 a.m. (87 degrees but add several degrees for cement pavement) en route to my doctor's appointment for a check-up. Time: 25 minutes. Parking an unmeasured mile from her office, of course, I had to walk the same distance back to my car.

No Time Reported ---------------
Barb Mutz - Gary and I are not in the race this year…actually, he did yoga and walked a mile, Does yoga count? So I guess it is actually that I am not in the race. I did something to my knee just walking upstairs and so my race is from one knee doctor to another this year. This is the pits! Great sitting here and getting everyone’s results and news

Becky Bulleit. I join those who can’t do this anymore. My knees need to be replaced! I did go to my “Body Works” class at the gym, rode an exercise bike and used a few machines to help strengthen the muscles in my knees and thought of you all while doing it. I have done a lot of walking with my volunteer job at summer school but only get through it with Advil and cold packs on the knees. I really enjoy reading everyone’s reports and especially John’s poetry.

Carol Stone. I have so enjoyed everyone’s emails even if they haven’t been able to participate in this unique agenda that you have managed to keep going for 15 years! I am not able to walk very far right now but I am so encouraged by people like Roger Griffith and Jim Lewis and of course you Tom! I think we should elect you as our class of 59 Glenbard Ambassador! It was great seeing you in California with Becky and Chuck and Patti Witt! Can’t wait to see everyone this September.

Cathy Ayers. I will not be participating again - haven't much - but will be thinking of you all and cheering you on. I had a hip replaced in April - wonderful what they can do for old bodies - but it is doing well. The real reason is that we are in England - London now and Oxford on the day of the mile where Jim will be attending a conference. Our time in London now is with a former postdoc and his wife and young kids, 2 1/2 and 5, so we're doing some little kid things - fun. Then a bit more traveling around, back to London and then to Ann Arbor in August. Have a great "race"

Jeff Baker. Last year I enjoyed walking the lake with Rog and Neal. Had I known, probably would have joined this year. I’ll try to do it next year, just keep me in the loop as I enjoy reading about everyone’s experiences.

Joni Paulsen. I hope you will keep me on the list. My husband is in dialysis for end-stage kidney disease, and then he fell and fractured his arm and is in rehabilitative care. I have to focus on him and don’t have the energy to even think about this. I have NOT given up permanently. I sent two previous e-mails to you, and you usually reply, thus this third and last one. Love to all my classmates. It was a privilege to attend beautiful Glenbard and enjoy the company of so many wonderful people.

Kay Hall. I was so glad to hear from Roger Griffith that the annual run, walk or whatever was is still official. My husband Joe has severe emphysema, so I'm a full-time care-giver, but as I told Roger, I'll get in my cheerleading mode to cheer them on. My new email address is DAVEMIKE2348@YAHOO.COM. I'll love to see the results.

Nancy Fricke. So great to hear from you, and thank you for keeping us all connected! I will not be participating again this year, but I will be cheering you all on and will look forward to reading the e-mails and results. Best wishes from The Woodlands, TX!

Steve Capel - I’m still alive and active. It just happened that the 15th was the day before our daughter and granddaughter in Phoenix, AZ were arriving -- and momma said I had other things more pertinent and important to do that day! And we know that when momma expresses a suggestion, it carries an underlying implication of immediate expectation and action! I had not covered a mile, especially running, for quite a while -- so I do not even have a synthetic approximation of what my time might have been. Thanks for all you do to carry this project forward each year with a lively discourse and, as appropriate, chiding to those of us who have “chosen” not to participate.

Sue Burwell. Fun to read all the replies I didn't run or walk this year as we are on our yearly trek to Idaho Thinking of all if you and remembering Kay Hall in her cheerleading outfit. Happy summer We are enjoying the cooler weather in Idaho Susie Wallace

Exhortation (2019): [This one had some interesting HISTORY]
* WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT JULY 15TH?
That will mark the date of our 15th annual July 15th Invitational set for …you guessed it…July 15th.
Who is invited? Dozens of veterans and all newcomers. Gals, gals, gals -- we particularly want to encourage you to step up to the starting line!
For those of you who have never participated in or for that matter never heard of the July 15th Invitational, you are in luck. As a member of Glenbard’s class of 1959 you qualify! All you have to do is go from here to there a mile away on July 15th. And you get to do it any way you wish and anywhere you want. We have had some swimmers, motorcycle riders, garage sale browsers, wheelchair drivers, bike riders, golfers, dog walkers, tractor riders, stationary bikers, treadmillers, walkers and a few who work hard each year to run their mile.
What are the requirements? First you have to find and use a measured mile course. Second you need to turn in a precise time using a timing device like your phone or watch. Third, you have to do your mile on July 15th (or get approval for varying the date) and report your time and local conditions to all on the final list on July 15th. As long as you follow these rules, you can do your mile anywhere at any time with anyone and be included in hundreds of emails from your classmates.
Why do we do this? The simple answer is to stay fit and to stay connected. This all started in 2005 when I invited some classmates who had been on the Glenbard Cross Country team to participate in an annual competition where we would agree to run a mile on the same day regardless where we were in the world and report in our times so we could see how we were holding up 46 years out of high school.
Here is what the first year results looked like back in 2005
           1. Stakes at 7:06            [John Staedke]
           2. Mutz at 7:19
           3. Chan at 7:21.83
           4. Teun at 7:23
           5. Jim at 12:10
           6. Chuck and Skipper at 13:22 for 1.278 mi.
           7. Dave’s Two-Dog One-Mile at 14:28
           8. John Pond DNF
The results from the first event show that we had participation from cross country members John Staedke, Gary Mutz, Jim Lewis, Teun Schoolworth, and John Pond (“I've let my running program slip, a lot. I went to the local airport the other night and ran about 3/4 mi. which hurt plenty”), along with yours truly, the Team Manager). We were also joined by football athletes Chuck Gelhaar in the 8 legged category, and Dave Zinn in the 12 legged category. We were encouraged by emails from fans and non-running kibitzers like Mary Hanson, and Helen Moran Lemal. And we could count on being entertained by Dick Cassidy’s perspective as he commented here "you can safely assume that by now i have done all the running i intend to do for today. or for 2005 for that matter. mark my finishing time down as occurring at 1012 am. let me know your times and then i'll let you know when i started.” And this “Also, to accept these other times in the sub 8 minute time we will need a certification of the track size 440 yards or 400 meters. I would assume it was 400 meters which is .99 of a mile." - - - >>> I stand ready, willing and able to run the 0.01 for any and all who need my assistance. I am pretty fast over a 0.01 track. Pretty fast.”
The dozens of you who have participated in the past will be getting an email from me as we get close to July 15th. For any newcomers that would like to join us this year, please send me an email to be sure you get on the list. Tomchandler1@cox.net

July 15, 2018 Glenbard59 Annual Run --------------- (#14)

Reports:
* Lots of changes in the past year. Ronn and I decided two houses were not enough, so last September we bought a third in Mesquite, NV. Like McCollum says, look it up. On the AZ border just south of the Az/Ut border ( St. George in Utah is closest real town) Las Vegas is hour and a half South of us. My house in Silver is still on the market. Ronn’s we’re keeping. Lower altitude here, and most importantly, MUCH easier access for the kids. Still doing lots of tennis, and dog walking - like 2+ miles twice a day, EVERY day…. (Ronn does that. I don’t walk when I play tennis in the morning, but otherwise accompany them all (3 dogs). Ronn’s a golfer, and Mesquite’s a golfer’s paradise. Hot here! Our nighttime lows are higher than Silver City’s daytime highs. But we had rain last night, so for my “run” this morning at 6:30 am (PDT) it was only 78°, sunny, altitude about 1800’, time 12.42.
Helen Moran Lemal

* Reporting in as ordered. Walked a measured highway mile in 13:37 this morning in Hancock, Massachusetts (get out your Rand McNally). Temp 70, humidity 98% 1100 foot elevation. Glad to still be able to participate! Miss my friend Jim Undem. All well with our clan. 5 of 10 grandchildren out of college (4 employed!) Still living in Rowayton, CT with some (mostly winter) time spent up here in The Berkshires.
Dave McCollum

* I learned something today. My 100’ altitude regular high school track was locked up tight today despite being wide open yesterday when I ran a 9:31 practice run. I then headed up to the 800’ altitude high school track and that was locked up tight too. I guess that high schools around here are now sealed off on Sundays. I’ll have to check where I ran in 2012 and see if that is a new development since the last Sunday on July 15. Sad if that is so. I didn’t want to use “map my run” and run in the streets with traffic and streets to cross so I went to the marked 8’ concrete boardwalk at the beach and took my chances with surfboarders and bikers. I had my Glenbard hat on. The temperature was about 75, wind was 6 mph out of the east with humidity at 60%. Overall it was very comfortable. The only problem was that I had never run a mile in a straight line before and it was hard to know about my pace without visual cues that a track provides. My goal was to try to break 9 minutes so I started fast and hoped to hang on. Somehow I missed the faded painted .25 mile on the concrete but I knew it was behind me when I looked at the watch at 2:10 because I didn’t see it after that. My half mile was a 4: 21 and that made me realize I could break 9 if I could keep from slowing too much and push at the end. The result was an 8:57 so I was happy to lose only about 25 seconds from last year.
Tom Chandler

* Reporting in - 15 and a half minutes doing a jog/walk on a nearby Lake Oswego, OR. elementary school track/path around the playfield. Temp. was about 70 degrees and climbing today to 99!! Really hot for here. I finished at 9 a.m. I used my new-ish hi-tech Fitbit stopwatch feature and was happy this lo-tech user was able to make it work.
Pam Wildish Bosworth

* I look forward to July 15 to reconnect with classmates but the reminder that I get slower every year is a bit painful. Mile Walk – 23.04 minutes. Biked 3.4 Miles – 26.09 minutes.
Bonnie Sporka Shableski

* Location: Mt. Juliet, TN * Course Description: rolling hills (no measured track in these neck of the woods) * Measuring and Timing Device: I-phone ( my Fitbit Surge wouldn't get GPS for me.) * Weather Conditions: Hot and humid (thunderstorm delayed start) Thank you, Tom, for relaxing your rule about running buddies. I took full advantage of your change of heart by enlisting two Kenyans…although I am being presumptuous about the “buddy” part. The first was a 29 year old frequent caregiver for my husband and a former university scholarship runner whose PR mile time is 4:14. The second was his 33 year old cousin Alex Kipchirchir Rono, a former Nike Runner, who is visiting. His resume includes World Jr Champion in the 800 meters (the same year that Usain Bolt won the 200 meters), World #1 in the 1500 meters 2006-2007 (3:30), and the World Cup Champion in the 1500 meters in Athens, Greece. Alex’s best mile is 3:50, once a junior world record. Here is a photo of the three of us...plus my daughter and Erick's mother. My time was 9:30...slower than hoped for but I was just thrilled Alex and Eric ran with me. They did it most willingly too...really humble men.
Margie

* Covered the mile in 9:45 at 6:35am., dodging puddles on the track. Temperature 77, humidity 85%, wind SSE 10mph, elevation about 800’, cloudy with passing thunder storms. Slower than ever but just glad to be able to run. ""The ‘59 class of Glenbard High / Covers a mile each year in July / Though hard is each step / And shorter each breath / United again, onward they strive Fast ‘59 classmates vie in the run / But some just amble a mile in the sun / No matter the way / Each does it that day / The bantering emails are the most fun. What? Artificial hips and knees? / Our classmates are replete with these / Their mile they go / And each year show / Pride is nothing at which to sneeze."
John Staedke

* Mutz Here; Just walked a mile in 12:36 finished with a 12 minute pace. I was on a tread mill since I cannot run much due to knee replacements The temp outside is 92 with a humidity of 90% but is a pleasant 75 inside the club.
Gary Mutz

* So . . . in the air-conditioned health club on the elliptical machine and my time was 12:26. I think that is the same time as Gary, but . . . Just let him know that I am a fast woman!
Barbara Fossum Mutz

* Given the forecast for temperatures close to 90 later today, I made the trek at about 7 a.m. over to the downtown Bellevue (WA) park which has a measured 1/2 mile loop pathway. Skies were sunny, temperature 68 degrees, no wind, humidity 70 per cent. My time for walking the mile was 16:04, measured the low tech way with a wrist watch, that does have a second hand! As always, it is fun to be a part of the class activity.
Cliff Argue

* I got up early to do my mile "run" in a cool 70 degree Solana Beach morning. This year it was a brisk walk over the usual sidewalks, driveway aprons, curbs and tree root-compromised pavement and slightly up and down elevations for a time of 15 minutes and 48 seconds. I was out early enough to be alone with a soft ocean breeze and the sounds of pigeons cooing and the general avian awakening. A lovely time to be out and about and it makes me wonder why I don’t do this everyday, as it is a real spirit booster! I send good thoughts to all of you and hope your mile was a good one no matter how it was accomplished!
Linnea Asplind Riley

* My usual time for my 4MR, or mid-month morning mile run: 10 and a half minutes. Please, everyone, look at the health links on our website (lots and lots about exercise). Here's the link: fettle.
Hardy

* I got in my mile swim in just the nick of time. I did it in 59:48 minutes. This was done in a downpour and as I finished my last lap, the pool was closed for "lightning in the area". The monsoons have arrived in Green Valley, AZ. So far it hasn't interfered with my 9 holes of golf that I play 3 days a week in the summer. We shotgun at 7:30 AM so that I'm done before it gets hot.
Judy Smith Noren

* Alas, when rounding the third lap of my sub 13 minute mile (?), my right leg decided to quit. Not being in a position to argue, I acquiesced and proceeded to limp home. Finishing in 14:50. Oh well, there's always next year. (Learned that by being a Cub fan!!)
John Windeguth

* I’m just getting the muscles used to walking again since arthritis had destroyed the tendons. Not having any pain is a wonderful thing. I’m afraid my right shoulder is the next thing that’s going to need attention. Nevertheless it’s wonderful to be alive and pain-free. According to my Chinese calendar this is the year of the hip. After total hip replacement surgery I swelled up like the Pillsberry dough boy. I put on my XL sweat pants and rode my Chinese knock off of the Peloton stationary bike for 30 minutes and went 4.5 miles. Converting to dog years I peddled for 210 minutes or 3.5 hours and was dog tired. I did not actually move in a linear fashion vis-à-vis my main frame of reference, but if you calculate the rotation of the earth on its axis, the rotation of the earth around the sun and the speed our galaxy is moving away from other galaxies, I probably went a phenomenal distance.
Dave Petersen

* I did my 6:30am Mitzi walk and I intended to walk her for my one mile time. She stops at every place she smells another dog odor to make sure she tops it off. So we returned home after about a 0.2 mile walk. After breakfast (Becky made me pancakes) I walked one mile in 17.5 minutes. It is 76 with 62% humidity at 1820 elevation in beautiful La Canada Flintridge, CA. Knees and left hip pain now feeling much better after the two Aleve tablets have kicked in.
Chuck Gelhaar

* Becky reporting in at 9:10 pm just having finished my mile (1/2 mile uphill and ½ mile downhill). I was at church when Chuck walked his mile and then it was too hot. I walked it in 18.25 minutes. Now I am going to put ice on the knees!!! Congratulations to all the old farts who participated.
Becky Bulleit Gelhaar

* I walked 3 miles along the shore of Spofford Lake, NH in 53 minutes. 87 degrees, very humid.
Teun Schoolwerth

* Have to confess I got started a little late today--and I certainly paid the price! (I now live in Orlando, FL, and the daily outdoor temperatures are typically in the 90's, starting in April and continuing into November, with humidities that are obscene.) So my time isn't great, 19:14 [later corrected to 14:19] but I was enthusiastic. And no more running or tennis for me--my hip joints complain with even a one-mile walk. I have become a yoga person and really enjoy it. Plus, I can still stand on my head and do the splits. Moved here because my daughter-in-law had brain cancer and I am delighted to say that she is doing well now. The family is headed for a beach trip on Tuesday to celebrate my granddaughter's 21st birthday. No weddings or great-grandchildren yet. It's such fun to hear from you all and thanks to Tom and several others of you who keep us all laughing!
Jillayne Hollifield

* Well, I certainly forgot!!! I did my usual 1 mile walk this morning, but didn’t time it. I’ll time it tomorrow and send it in just to keep in touch with everyone!! Maybe I’ll even jog, we’ll see . . . I really enjoy having our joint activity every year!! I’ll put it on my calendar for next year now!! I’ll look forward to seeing everyone’s times. Hope you all enjoyed going from here, to one mile there, this year!!
Gay Galle Danna

* Year of the Clock. Good concept. There may be some, me included, for whom a sundial will provide appropriate timely timing. But for now, I submit the following: In May, (obviously not July 15, may the asterisk gods smile on me re date) I rode my one-speed beach cruiser bike 47.5 miles on the Tunnel Hill State Trail. Two days, May 21, 22. Riding 47.5 miles in 5.83 hours, including frequent breaks (the best part of the ride) I averaged 7.36 minutes/mile. While my submitted time of 7.36 is unaudited, it has been ruled valid by an executive session of The Regional Committee, meeting on an undisclosed date, at an undisclosed location, at an undisclosed time. I have been authorized to direct inquiries, should there be any, to The Committee's legal counsel. Since the Invitational rules permit any means of covering a mile, bicycle is definitely acceptable. The only need to asterisk my 7.36 is the date. I throw myself on the mercy of the nvitational Czar, and respectfully request this time be accepted as my 2018 time. I did enjoy a stroll around Lake Ellyn with Roger and Jeff this afternoon. After our enjoyable walk, Roger did an amazing 14.something on the track. In addition to losing his wife since last year, Roger has endured several health issues the past winter and spring, lingering into early summer. His discipline and hard work paid off with a time today that was better than his time in 2017. Go Roger. see photo of lake, castle, and 3 '59ers
Neal Whitecotton

* Like Linnea--who lives about 10 miles south of me--I went out early and tried my darndest, using an odometer that is known not to lie. It took 17:30 to walk the mile. I have no excuses like obstacles. This is a moment of truth: I am slowing down and have no excuses! I guess I ain't what I used to be, but I'm not grey yet.
Mary Hanson Hirsch

* To: Tom (8:57), Margie Stoll (9:30), and John Steadke (9:45). I’m jealous and envious, of what you do at our age. I’d love to be able to still do the great times that you are doing. Margie, if we had you on our cross country team in high school, we probably would’ve taken first place in State. Jeff, Neal, and I met for this year’s 7/15/18 Annual Mile at Lake Ellyn. Marybert was there in heart, but unfortunately couldn’t make it due to recent hip replacement. Temperature was about 90°, humidity about 55%; some clouds came over and helped to block the sun which made our walk around the lake, and my mile jog on the track more bearable. We mourned the passing of more of our classmates and loved ones, and the deterioration of our and our classmates health…Jeff’s knee replacement; Neal’s back problems, Marybert’s hip replacement, my avalanche of blood clots in early April (multiple pulmonary embolism’s in both lungs, plus multiple deep vein thrombosis in my right leg). But we also reminisced and were thankful for the good times, for having attended such a beautiful high school and campus, for still being above ground and mostly capable. The path that has been always around the lake, is almost fully replaced with a concrete sidewalk, which will probably be 100% complete in a few weeks. Running on concrete will be bad for joggers, but will be good for those who are mobility challenged. So on July 15, 2019 (our 60th reunion), even if you are in a wheelchair, you will be able to go completely around the lake on the concrete. Although in 2012, Bruce Spencer went completely around the unpaved path in his motorized wheelchair (if you don’t believe me look at the picture below). After Jeff, Neal, & I completed our casual (meaning slow) walk & talk around the lake, I went to the track to do my official timed mile, and Neal was kind enough to be my coach, witness, cheerleader, (and 911 caller if I needed it). Although I was also spurred on to do well (so I wouldn’t be embarrassed) by a young lady doing interval sprint training. When I told her I graduated in 1959, she said I looked good. I think she meant, I looked good for an old guy. But of course, my ego wanted to think that…yeah baby, I still got it! When I was disappointed because I thought my 14:22 time was 59 seconds slower than last year’s time, Neal perked me up by pointing out that I was actually one second faster than last year’s time! As I was leaving the track, the young lady asked how I did, and I said one second faster than last year. She gave me a hi-5 and said, she’s going to tell her dad to get busy working out. While I’m kind of happy that I beat John Windeguth’s 14:50 time, It’d be a lot more satisfying victory, if he didn’t have to limp through his last lap due to straining a leg muscle. Thanks for the memories everyone, and best of health to all of you! I hope more of you come to the Lake Ellyn mile next year!
Roger Griffith

* Just checking to see if I got credit for my blazing 14:35. It was later in the day because of passing storms but even my hubby said I was going very fast---nothing like some of the rest of you but fast for me and some of the folks around here. My husband and grandson timed me independently and each came up with the same time so it must be correct. Max, my grandson cheered me on from the car window (he is 6) and said I did great! I will be looking forward to next year - - - so proud of how some of the class of 59 are doing . Life is sure great for me here in Florida.
Judy Wood Talley

* For the last 5 or so years, I have jogged or walked a mile on the East Hampton, Long Island, NY High School 1/4 mile track. I walked a mile in 17 minutes ...no cigar, but mission accomplished. Weather conditions were perfect. As is my summer habit, after the exercise I went to the local bakery, got a small coffee (milk and sugar), blueberry scone, and New York Times, and proceeded to the Main Beach in East Hampton. I arrived at my usual time, 7:15 am, and for 1/2 hour watched the waves, read the paper, added a few calories, completing a nice balance of exercise and reward. After watching the Wimbledon Gentleman's final, World Cup, and Yankees TV events, I have sufficiently recovered from the morning‘s activities to compose this email. During the course of each year since we began our "Mile" together as a class, I have mentioned this annual occurrence to many people. All seem to marvel that, as a group, we are able to do this. And get so much meaning and satisfaction from it. It makes me realize how lucky we were, and are, to have lived growing up in Lombard and Glen Ellyn, and how it continues to influence our lives in so many positive ways. Should any of you pass through New York City, please let me know. My door is always open.
Jim Lewis

* I did report in. Seems like it was on one of Chuck's replies. I must have made a mistake. My mile was like 35 minutes. Don't know why it took me so long. I only stopped briefly at the drugstore. Guess I belong in the new category.
Patti Galligan Witt

* Reporting in this year, but I'm not including classmate's e-mails since I'm not happy that I WALKED my usual dog route yesterday pm. We lost our dog, Sipsy, but I've continued to walk with invisible Sipsy since. Our route is 1.25 miles and the time was 18 min 35sec., not good.
John Pond

* I did my (almost) daily 3 mile walk in 55 minutes. In the Arizona heat and the monsoon humidity, I think that’s about as good as I’ll ever get.
Jo Rice Borden

* Just reporting my 1 mile bike ride in my neighborhood,missed all the other bikers,walkers,dogs and cars.It took me 6 minutes then I jumped in to the swimming pool. Huntsville's weather was 107 heat index,I got my hair wet and a few ice cubes down the front of my shirt then pedaled away. Not too bad considering 4 total knee replacements! :-)
