Kyle Stewart, or HamsterBob he is known, began his running career at St. Francis High School (Mountain View), where he received awards for cross country MVP and track distance co-captain his senior year.  He is now a senior at Harvey Mudd College and is double majoring in Computer Science and Politics and International Relations.  He has eleven toes and hopes that running will cause the extra to retreat back into his foot.  His parents, Ray Stewart and Marianne Petersen, root for him from his hometown of Redwood City.  He runs the steeplechase in track.
