Alex Miley Wins the Class AA 3200

Maple Grove's Alex Miley doubled in the 1600 and the 3200 in April at the Hamline Elite Meet.  Miley's objective then was to run against tougher competition than he had encountered prior to that meet.  His investment paid off on Friday.

The favorite going into the State Meet was Hopkins' Seth Eliason, who won the 3200 at the Hamline Elite Meet, but also had a bond of sorts with Miley.  The pair had gotten to know one another as they traveled together to Nike Nationals.  "We got to know each other's strengths and weaknesses," said Miley

Thus it was no surprise that Miley took off early in the race after an opening quarters of 72 and 73 seconds.  Eliason, who is known for his speed and ability to out kick his opponents, likes to save his energy for his kick.  Miley is adept at neutralizing that finishing speed by attempting to tire his opponents with a solid early pace.  So, neither Eliason and Miley were surprised that Miley opened up a large gap between himself and the field early on.

Eliason was surprised that the 72 second first lap seemed  harder than normal.  He could see the gap Miley had, but wasn't able to close it.  "You had it today," Eliason said to Miley as the two got together after the race. Eliason had been passed late in the race by Como Park's Innocent Murwanashyaka, who said that he didn't have the confidence to try and catch Miley. He didn't want to lose what he'd already gained if he miscalculated and blew up attempting to challenge  Miley and lost what he'd gained.

For Eliason the attempt of Antonio Judson-Red Elk to pass him triggered a new surge of energy.  "I didn't want to finish fourth again," said Eliason.  I was fourth in cross country and I didn't want that to happen again.  Being able to hold off Judson-Red Elk boosted his spirit some and Eliason set another goal.  He wanted to make up for the loss of the 3200 by setting his mind on winning the 1600 on Saturday.

The top four in the 3200 are scheduled to resume their rivalry on a day that is predicted to be more hot and humid than Friday, leaving all the participants with another obstacle. Miley said he was pleasently surprised that he seemed to be recovering well from his efforts in winning the 3200 and optimistic that he might be able to complete a distance double in the 1600.

Grace Ping Targets 10:10

As the top finishers in the Class A Girl's 3200 award ceremony were standing in line to go onto the podium one of the other, older runners came up to Ping and said: "Please keep doing what you're doing. You're an inspiration to us all."

Ping, a 7th grader, is also ambitious.  When she was asked what her goal was, she said this year it was to run 10:10 for the 3200.  She was hoping to run that on Friday but it would have had to have been a solo effort in far from perfect conditions for running fast.  Senior Hannah Truniger led for the first few laps, starting with a 74 second first lap, followed by a 79 before Ping took over.

Ping said she followed for the first few laps because she didn't want the first lap to be the fastest lap of her race.  Her strategy was to get faster with every lap, but she ended up running pretty even splits with a 5:15 first 1600, followed by a 5:16 second 1600.  The second 1600 was all on her own as Truniger and 2015 Class A 3200 winner Morgan Richter couldn't hold Ping's pace.

Ping comes back to run the 1600 on Saturday, then will run in the New Balance Outdoor Nationals next weekend in search of that 2016 goal of 10:10.

Mora's Cole Oslin Saves His Best for Last

Cole Oslin finishing 16th in the 2015 MSHSL XC Championships

Mora senior Cole Oslin didn't have great expectations for his last individual race as a high schooler.  He didn't think he could win the Class A 3200 until the last few yards of the race.  Throughout the event Oslin had a conflicting dialog going on in his head.

A baseball player in a family of nine brothers and two sisters, he  didn't run track until his junior year.  He'd gone out for cross country as a tenth grader to have something to do in the Fall.  In his junior year he realized his sport was not baseball, and that he wanted to run track in college.  Cole dropped baseball and went out for track and "discovered my passion" for running.

On Friday, the passion was there, but the confidence was not.  Having finished eleventh in 2015, he'd hoped for a top three finish this year, but was frustrated by the heat and his inability to get in a good position as the race unfolded.  "I kept getting boxed in and had to run out in the second lane to get out," he said.  "It was frustrating."

The heat didn't help as it added to the tactical struggle.  With two laps to go in the race he was feeling so bad that "my goal was to not drop out," Oslin said.  "Then I thought 'this is my last race, I can't quit. I have to keep going.'" Coming down the final straight Cole found himself on the shoulder of pre-race favorite Zack Emery, but that proximity didn't generate thoughts of victory over the 2015 Class A XC champion.

With 100 meters left he thought to himself: "I can't do this."  But he looked at Emery and saw that Zack was vulnerable.  Emery wasn't pulling away.  He seemed to be slowing down.  With about ten yards to go, Oslin got some confidence.  "I CAN win this," he told himself and with one powerful surge blew past Emery to take the title.

He launched his big kick at just the right time, Cole said.  "If I would have gone sooner or later I don't think I would have won."  He would  have used his energy reserves too soon or waited too long to launch his big move. After he finished he looked more shocked than triumphant, but slowly it sank in, he was the champion.

"I'll probably be a little tired," he said, but on Saturday Oslin will be part of the Mora 4 by 800 relay.  The team has the fastest qualifying time in the slow heat of the relay but he won't be running for himself.  He'll be giving it his all for the team.  Then it's on to college down the road at Concordia St. Paul where he'll be majoring in history and political science with the goal of teaching and coaching after he gets his degree.

Running is his athletic passion and he'll try and share that passion with his new teammates at Concordia and, if all goes as planned, the kids he will someday coach.
