2010 Almgren Memorial Mayday Race Results
(May 2, 2010)

The Princeton Running Club won the 35th annual Fred Almgren memorial race trophy, with a time of 2:37. The second and third place teams were Princeton Physics (2:54) and Rutgers Math (2:58), and 11 teams competed.

Teams had syncronization issues this year. The Rutgers Math teams were absent at the start of the race, showing up about 90 seconds later. The Princeton Fun Math runner for leg 6 started 16 minutes before the leg 5 runner arrived. Neither event affected the team standings. In addition, this was the hottest race since 1978 (when several runners suffered heat stroke); fortunately everyone adjusted their pace this year and we had no casualties.
