Cowart Takes 6th in USATF Steeplechase
Don Cowart of Ragged Mountain Racing took 6th in the 3,000 meter steeplechase USATF 2011 USA championships in Eugene, Oregon this past weekend. Eric met Cowart and his coach at the Charlottesville High School track a few weeks ago, while Don was doing 3 one-mile repeats at a 4:40/mile pace! Although Don did not qualify for the world championships, his time of 8:39 and 6th place finish in the USA finals was very impressive.

Donnie ran 8:31 earlier in the season. The thing that is very tough about the U.S. champs is you have to run a heat and then run again two days later. Donnie's heat time was about 8:41. He had to run that fast to be sure and get through to the finals. To come back and run 8:39 just two days later is pretty good.
