1994
Every year, the results book dedicates this page to Tom Campbell and his computer. Since I've been spending the last ten years wondering what happened here, Jamie Kempton was kind enough to help me out with the following story:

As it turns out, Jamie not only solved the mystery of the computer, but also was able to provide me with a complete top ten, which I share with you below. (Frank Visingardi provided some additional results for the members of the 1994 Athletics Anonymous team, courtesy of John Nepolitan.) However, I do owe Tom's computer a debt of gratitude. In eating the 1994 results, Tom's computer eliminated all proof of my poorest Alumni Run showing ever. (This was during my lazy, pizza-eating sophomore year of college, which should not be confused with any of my other three pizza-eating years of college.) I will admit that it was ugly and that, for the only time in my Alumni career, I would wind up finishing (1) outside the top 30, and (2) behind a girl.
It did make it easier that the aforementioned "girl" was none other than Linda Scheu, my former Clarkstown North (and future Cornell) teammate, who became the only Rams alumnus, male or female, ever to win an Alumni Run. So I will dedicate this page not only to Tom Campbell (and will raise my glass in a toast to his computer), but also to Linda, and to John Trautmann, whose astounding 14:08 remains a course record to this day--a record that may never be broken.
