Salazar shatters record
Former Duck runner wins New York Marathon
NEW YORK (AP) - Former
Oregon running star Alberto
Salazar, who boldly predicted
he would break the world
record, shattered the men's
world mark Sunday in the New
York City Marathon
The soft-spoken, confident
Salazar, in only his second
marathon — he also won the
New York City event in 1980 —
clipped more than 20 seconds
off the men's record, covering
the 26-mile, 385-yard course in
2 hours, 8 minutes. 13 seconds
Allison Roe, who won the
1981 Boston Marathon only to
be suspended for running in a
professsional race and later
reinstated, sliced more than 12
seconds off the women's
record with a time of 2 25:29
The previous men's mark was
2 08 33 6. by Derek Clayton of
Australia set May 30, 1969 at
Antwerp Belgium The previous
women's record was 2:25 41 3,
by Grete Waitz of Norway in Iasi
year s New York City Marathon
The injured Waitz had to drop
out of this year s race between
the 14- and 15-mile points
"I dreamed of a world record,
but not of two," said a jubilant
Fred Lebow, the race director
Salazar, a 1981 graduate of
the University, had put himself
on the spot by predicting that he
would smash the world record,
with a time of 2:08, or possibly
2:07 He wasn't far off
I opened my big mouth
(again) this year,” said the
23-year-old Salazar, who a year
ago had said he could break
2:10 in his first marathon, and
beat that with a clocking of
2 09 41. "A lot of people would
have been disappointed if I had
not done it."
He did it — convincingly
Biding his time behind the fast
early pace set by Louis Kenny of
Ireland, the deceptively strong,
6-foot, 144-pound Salazar wait
ed until the 16-mile mark.
At that point, Kenny had
faded and Salazar was dueling
Mexico's Jose Gomez, a first
time marathoner, and Poland s
Ryszard Marczak for the lead
Then, Salazar, who came to
the United States with his family
when he was 2, put on a
remarkable burst He ran the
next mile in an unofficial 4:33 It
put him into the lead — and
more than 20 seconds ahead of
record pace
After that, the smooth-striding
Salazar pulled away from the
record field of 16,000 entrants
and his only challenger was the
clock
"I knew I would have to start
pushing,” he said I picked it
(the pace) up and then I was
confident I would do it ”
i 1 wmm
He was unchallenged the rest
of the way, and as he crossed
the finish line in Central Park, he
was mobbed by a horde of well
wishers.
