– Sunday, January 26, 2020 Providence, RI – Writeup by Mike Pelletier.
North Shore Strider Joe Milette traveled to Providence last Sunday and competed in two distance events at the USATF/NE Masters Indoor Track & Field Championships: the 3000 Meter Run and the 1 Mile Run. After being nosed out in the 3000 Meter Run by a mere 0.41 seconds, Joe had to wait less than an hour to return the favor and outrun David Principe and four other 50-year-olds as he won the Senior Masters Mile.
