Pat Russell, who was unable to finish Saturday's USA 100K Championship in Madison, Wisconsin, tells Chad Austin about his race (and a lot more) in a brand new Running Minnesota post. Minnesota native Scott Jurek finished second in the race; Duluth's Kim Holak was the 8th place woman.
Russell, who admitted he was still "taking stock" of his performance, attributed the cold conditions -- temps in the 20s with windchills near zero at the start -- and some lingering injuries as part of his downfall. Russell added that Minnesota's Sonya Anderson-Decker was rushed to the hospital with hypothermia after running well through 9oK.
Russell had opened the 2007 season road racing season with three victories, including the USATF - Minnesota 8K title at the Human Race 8K.
