Jayson Jackson reminded me of the great article in The Penn Stater magazine about
Horace Ashenfelter III. Thanks, Jayson! I know we have featured Horace many times, and even included
video of his 1952 gold medal race, but the link gave us a short clip of his last barrier leap before crossing the finish line. And his clearance of the barrier would not earn a gold medal for style, but once over it,
it no longer mattered!
“He almost forgot to jump over it,” remembers his wife, Lillian.
Today's steeple finals will include 2012 Olympic finalist
Bridget Franek, attempting to complete her
"comeback".

And here's a pic of former PSU Rugby's
Dane Rauschenberg (and honorary member!) wearing his Alumni Singlet for the first time in a Half Marathon! He is a great ambassador for our sport and Penn State!
