Jim "Frit" Cooper recently brought us some exclusive pics from the NCAA Regional XC Meet at Lehigh. And he has added another post for us to reminisce about those cold State College days of yore!
He relates that former PSU Marathon Record Holder George Christopher had a big bag of his grandmother's knitted mittens in his locker to hand out to all those unprepared runners going out to "do 10" in the cold. How many of you remember these?
For many years I ran in a pair knitted for me by Heather Carmichael as a Christmas present in 1978. And since she was from a place with more sheep than people, you know they were great. They were even blue and white! I'm still looking for them to take a pic. But since I now run on the treadmill most of the time, I have misplaced them...
