Series Champions
Remarkably this year both Series Champions come from our oldest age category. And despite 40% increase in the number of men under 40 years of age running ultras, the man with the second most points was also over 50 years of age.

	Name	Age	Home Town	Total (best 3)	BPAC 25-Apr	HF30 29-May	FL50K 3-Jul	FL50M 3-Jul	GL50K 29-Aug	GL100K 29-Aug	Can50K 9-Oct	Can50M 9-Oct	Mendon 6-Nov
1	Chenery, Paul	53	Toronto, ON	285.38	97.70					96.69		90.99
1	Kleinrock, Nancy	50	Trumansburg, NY	295.26		100.00	99.82		95.44

In years past Nancy Kleinrock has won or placed highly in one or two series races but, until this year, has not run the three races it takes to contend for a Category Win, much less take the Series Championship. This year, with a win at Highland Forest and top placing finishes in the very competitive 50 kilometer races at the Finger Lakes Fifties and Green Lakes Endurance Runs, she has a 7 point lead over Natalie Kremer.

Canadian Paul Chenery moved to the head of the field with his 90.99 point finish in the 50 mile at the Can Lake 50 Ultras. Ed Housel (age 51) closed to within four points with his third place at the Mendon 50K.

Our two champions will receive commemorative jackets from Fleet Feet Sports of Rochester.

Series Standings by Category
Notes: All men are scored based on the performance of the overall male winner; all women are scored based on the performance of the overall female winner. The male and female winners will be awarded the maximum score of 100 points, 104 points for the 50 Mile races and 106 points for the GLER 100K. Other finishers in each category are awarded points proportional their performance. There will be no duplication of awards, i.e., the runner with the next most points to the Series Champion will be awarded First Place in the age group category.

Jill Perry finished third overall and first in the Open Women category. Robert McMahon was the Open Men category winner with 39.00 miles.

	Highland Forest 1 2 3 - Ed Housel (4:32:21) / Nancy Kleinrock (4:52:07) Veteran runners ruled the 12th running of the Highland Forest 1 2 3. It was a rather warm day and, with the warm spring and end of May race date, the grass was overgrown. But that didn't slow down Ed Housel (age 51) and Nancy Kleinrock (age 50). Housel prevailed by 18 minutes over Joel Cisne who took the Open Men category in 4:50:19. Kleinrock was the 3rd overall finisher in a new Veteran Women record time. Shannon Cutting ran a fine race, just missing getting under 5 hours with her 4th overall and Masters Woman win in 5:01:38. Tom Nesterick was the top Masters Man, finishing 5th overall in 5:07:29.

	Finger Lakes Fifties (50k and 50 mile): Record fields inaugurated the changed course. Cows were seen. 50k - Christopher Bynum (4:56:28) / Amy Lane (5:01:50). The overall race win was extremely close for both men and women. Christopher Bynum (age 30) finished only 14 seconds ahead of Matthew Reynolds (age 39). Matt Wilson (age 48) finished 3rd overall and 1st Masters Men in 5:00:37, just over 4 minutes back of the race winner. Amy Lane (age 30) finished 4th overall and first woman only 33 seconds in front of Nancy Kleinrock (age 50) who was the 5th overall finisher and a runaway winner of the Veteran Women category. A record 118 runners finished the 50k. 50 mile - Brian Rusiecki (6:46:30) / Frances Davis (9:16:22). Brian Rusiecki (age 31) won in a strong sub-7 hour effort. Jack Pilla was also under 7 hours with a remarkable 6:54:21 finish at age 52. Joshua Finger (age 37) also got close to 7 hours with a strong 7:12:49 finish. Frances Davis (age 31) was the top woman.

	Green Lake Endurance Runs (50K & 100K): It was cool for the early laps enabling many new 50K age group records and a very high finish rate. The afternoon was unseasonably warm, still 23 runners finished the 100K and two records were set. 50K - Brian Rusiecki (3:35:30) / Amy Lane (4:20:30). Brian Rusierki and Amy Lane (both age 31, both from Westfield, MA) were the Open (18-39) division winners. Jeff Nelson (age 45) finished third overall in 3:45:59 and set a new race record for Masters Men (40-49). Shannon McHale (age 40) finished third woman in 4:20:57, breaking the Masters Women record. Ed Housel (age 51) broke his own Grandmaster (50-59) record finishing sixth overall in 4:00:43. Yet another record was set by Nancy Kleinrock (age 50), finishing fifth among the women and taking over an hour off the prior Grandmaster (50-59) record. Pat Riccardi (age 60) finished in 5:26:34, winning the 60+ Senior Grandmaster division in the second fastest age 60+ time on the course.

	Can Lake 50 Ultras (50 mile & 50K). The extraordinary success of first time ultrarunners in both races was the story of the 2010 Can Lake 50 Ultras. All 22 runners who made the easier 50k their first ultra finished and an amazing 33 of 34 who picked the much harder full loop around the lake for their first ultra finished. 50 Mile - John Ehntholt (6:34:25!) / Viktoria Szilagyi (8:07:37). Ehntholt (Glens Falls) became the second man to run 50 miles around Canandaigua Lake in under 7 hours with his superb new event record. Szilagyi, up from Miami, Florida, unfazed by our big hills and low humidy, managed to just hold off Sarah Eighmey (Geneva) who finished only 39 seconds behind her. A record 76 runners finished 50 miles within the 12 hour time limit. Click for 50 Mile Results. 50K - Yusuke Tateno (4:00:14) / Greta Schardein Ledgerwood (4:56:19).
