Conditions were nearly ideal, with temperatures in the 50s and 60s on the scenic lakefront course. Philip McCarthy, 41, of New York City and Jill Perry, 38, of Manlius, NY took their first national titles. <P>McCarthy, one of the top Americans at the all day / all night event for the past three years and one of the favorites, compiled 151.51 miles for the win. Perry, a relative newcomer to ultrarunning at any distance, emerged victorious after a nip-and-tuck duel through the night with local favorite (and #2 all-time American) Connie Gardner, racking up 136.32 miles for the win. <P>Veteran and former national champ John Geesler, 50, of St. Johnsville, NY, nipped Dan Rose, 32, of Washington, DC by just over one-tenth of a mile to take second behind McCarthy. On the distaff side, relatively unknown Anna Piskorska, 37, of Blandon, PA was runner-up with 132.26 miles, ahead of another local runner and 2009 U.S. national team member Debra Horn of Shaker Heights, OH, who totaled 128.93 miles. All six of these athletes qualified for the U.S. national team that will compete at the World 24 Hour in Brive, France in May 2010. <PRE> <b>Inaugural North Coast 24 Hour Endurance Run Cleveland, OH, October 3-4, 2009</b> MEN 1) Philip McCarthy, 41, New York, NY, 151.51 miles, $900 2) John Geesler, St. Johnsville, NY, 139.41 miles, $300 3) Dan Rose, Washington, DC, 139.28 miles, $200 4) Keith Straw, Malvern, PA, 137.87 miles 5) Tim Clement, Solon, OH, 134.21 miles WOMEN 1) Jill Perry, 38, Manlius, NY, 136.32 miles, $900 2) Anna Piskorska, Blandon, PA, 132.26 miles, $300 3) Debra Horn, Shaker Heights, OH, 128.93 miles, $200 4) Kim Martin, 44, Lakeville, MN, 123.19 miles 5) Connie Gardner, 45, Medina, OH, 116.19 miles </PRE> <P>Complete race results, photos and more at: <A HREF="http://www.northcoast24.org" target="_news">www.northcoast24.org</A>.  </div>  <HR color="#000000" noshade > <P> <A HREF="/running/rw_getRSS.html" target="main"><IMG SRC="/running/images/rss_feed.gif" HEIGHT="15" WIDTH="80" BORDER="0"></A> <P><A HREF="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RunnersWeb/join" target="_news"><b>Subscribe to the Runner's Web Weekly Digest</b></A> <BR> <b>Check out our <A HREF="/running/rw_intro.html"><b>FrontPage</b></A> for all the latest running and triathlon news.</b> </TD></TR> <TR><TD COLSPAN=2> </TD></TR> </TABLE> <BR><CENTER><script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </CENTER> <HR color="#000000" noshade > <CENTER><A HREF="#top">Top of News</A> <BR><A HREF="http://www.runnersweb.com/running.html" target="_top">Runner's Web FrontPage</A></CENTER> <CENTER> <P> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> <P> <CENTER><iframe scrolling=no frameborder="0" src="rw_active_athlete_728X90.html" width="728" height="90" align="center"></iframe></CENTER>  <center> <B>© 1996 - 2007 RunnersWeb.com - All rights reserved.</B> <FORM style="margin-bottom:0;" method=GET action="http://www.google.com/custom" target="_news"> <TABLE bgcolor=#000000 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 border=1 style="margin-bottom:0;"> <tr valign=top> <td> <font color="#FFCC33"><B> Google Search for: </B></font> <INPUT TYPE=text name=q size=31 maxlength=255 value="" style="font-size:8pt; background-color: #FFCC33; color: #000000"> <INPUT type=hidden name=cof VALUE="GALT:gray;S:http://www.runnersweb.com/running.html;GL:2;VLC:FF0000;AH:left;BGC:FFCC33;LH:25;LC:000000;GFNT:gray;L:http://www.runnersweb.com/running/runnerswebcom20.jpg;ALC:000000;LW:176;T:FFFFFF;GIMP:black;AWFID:f972d587ecfeb936;"> <input type=hidden name=domains value="RunnersWeb.com"> <font color="#FFCC33"><B>in</B></font> <input type=radio name=sitesearch value=""><font color=#FFCC33"><B><font size=-1>Web</font></B></font> <input type=radio name=sitesearch value="RunnersWeb.com" checked><font color=#FFCC33"><B><font size=-1>Site</font></B></font> <INPUT STYLE="font-size:8pt; font-weight:bold; color:#FFCC33; background-color:black" type=submit name=sa VALUE=" Go "> <A HREF="RunnersWeb_External_Links.html?http://www.google.com/language_tools?hl=en" target="_news"><font color="#FFCC33"><B>Translate</font></B></A> </td></tr></TABLE> <input type=hidden name=client value='pub-7139008609991931'> <input type=hidden name=forid value='1'> <input type=hidden name=ie value='ISO-8859-1'> <input type=hidden name=oe value='ISO-8859-1'> <input type=hidden name=cof value='GALT:#000000;GL:1;DIV:#000000;VLC:000000;AH:center;BGC:FFCC33;LBGC:000000;ALC:000000;LC:000000;T:000000;GFNT:CC0000;GIMP:CC0000;LH:50;LW:428;L:http://www.runnersweb.com/running/runnerswebcom_428X50.jpg;S:http://www.runnersweb.com;FORID:1;'> <input type=hidden name=hl value='en'> </FORM> </center>  </CENTER>  <script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> _uacct = "UA-220123-1"; urchinTracker(); </script>   <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> var dc_UnitID = 14; var dc_PublisherID = 6921; var dc_AdLinkColor = 'gray'; var dc_adprod='ADL'; </SCRIPT> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="http://kona.kontera.com/javascript/lib/KonaLibInline.js"></SCRIPT>  </bo+dy> </HTML>
