Marathon Team

An informal University marathon team will enter the Patriot's Day Boston Marathon tomorrow. Starting the 26 mile race at 12 noon will be Gabe Mirkin, a trophy winner in the 10 1/2 mile Cathedral Run, Bob Holmes '57, who placed in the Hyde Shoe 12-miler, Eric Segal, a member of the track team, and Jim Doty, a shot putter who weighs around 250 pounds but has decided to test his endurance. Although there have been many finishers from the College, a Harvard man has yet to win a medal by finishing among the top 35 in the traditional Marathon.
