schedule since 2006. “It’s a special race for me being
just down the road from my house,” said Pasteryak “And
although the results haven’t been what we wanted in the
past - we always seem to run well at Thompson, we just to
need to run well and finish well.”
Pasteryak recently recorded a big victory at Seekonk
Mass., in an open competition race. He collected the
$10,000 winner’s share. “That was a big win for me,” said
Pasteryak. “Hopefully I can add another at Thompson.”
