Kern Runs 4:16.79

Elmhurst's Charlie Kern, running strong at age 41, turned in another fine performance on Friday night at North Central College in Naperville, running the mile in 4:16.79. Charlie, who led a training group in the cold air from the Runner's Soul the next morning, says he is still hoping to run 4:13. He said racing on a Friday night after being on his feet most of the day did not help when it comes to achieving maximum speed. I'd say it was a great run. Congrats!
