...Bike. For a cool $7,000, the bike’s “monocoque high modulus carbon fiber front end frame” should cut your commute down by at least 10 minutes. You can order one at www.hdosports.com, the website of a sporting goods company founded by Alasdair McLean-Foreman, or drop by their retail store in Boston.

Under the Christmas finery of Sandrine’s, there are formals...
...weeks after a disappointing team finish at Heptagonals, the Crimson, propelled by Galebach’s improvement, recorded a top-10 finish. After running 4:58.6 per mile over an eight-kilometer course to earn second place at Heps, junior Alasdair McLean-Foreman (30:37) followed up this week by averaging five minute miles and placing 11th, just a spot away from qualifying for the NCAA Championships...
