Dan didn't start focusing on
running until his junior year of high school. He was injured off-and-on in his
first two years of college and ran mainly the 1500, so when he
started competing at 5000m with great success his junior year he opened
some eyes. Dan graduated with a double major in English from West
Point. He is fluent in Spanish and was a participant in the Army's
World Class Athlete Program. He picked the 2002 USA Men’s
Marathon Championship at the Twin Cities Marathon for his debut at
that distance, in what proved to be an inspired choice. Browne won the
26.2-mile race from Minneapolis to St. Paul, MN. in 2 hours, 11
minutes, 35 seconds. In winning the 10th national title of his career,
Browne also won the 2002 USA Running Circuit men’s title ($6,000) and
a winner’s check of $34,000. Browne’s time also makes him an “A”
standard qualifier for the 2004 Olympic Games. The overall winner at
Twin Cities, Browne credited his success to his coach, National Track
& Field Hall of Famer Alberto Salazar.
