Every Central Park runner entered in the Empire State Games last weekend medaled … at least we think so. Anyway, we haven t found a contrary example, so we re sticking to that story.

It was a master s crew including (but not necessarily limited to) Glen Carnes, Darnell Gatling, Val Barnwell, Ligaya Mishan (season PR in the 800 — 2:28), Mike Potter, Margot Sheehan, and even yours truly that accomplished the feat.

The ESG is a fun, fairly well-organized event — although officials did leave Ligaya s heat literally at the line when they went for a lunch break. She stayed cool, though, letting one of her opponents freak out on behalf of the group.

Nice job, gang.
