Craig Forys
10/01/2006
Craig Forys continued to push in an effort to get under the 15:00 barrier and did so in a new course record of 14:58 at the Cougar Classic on his home course.

For the winner it was a good chance to keep testing different strategies as he gets closer to the championship portion of the season. At last week’s Penn State Invitational, Forys pushed for the win with about 1 mile to go; today the plan was to push from a little further out and hold on. Even though he is still logging 70 miles per week in training, Forys still showed a turn of speed once he knew he was close to breaking the 15:00 barrier.

We salute Craig as the BreakThru Athlete of the Week!
