An equipment malfunction which wasn't discovered & corrected until after the 2 miler's finished, only allowed us to record finish
times for the 10K & 15K racers. The few times shown below for the 2 milers were recorded by the runners themselves. The finish
order is correct. Our apologies. We'll take steps to hopefully keep this from happening in the future. Here's the recap. Kerrie
Bowes and Ted Poulos won the 2 mile race. New weekly runner, Kimberly Houston, took an impressive 3rd place behind Melodie
Bowler (2nd in the women's event). Gerry Clapper, afflicted with some kind of bug, won the 10K. Ellie Bateman, seen at recent
bagel runs, won the women's race in 46:21(5th overall), an excellent time for this hilly course. Keep an eye out for Doug Kuderna,
who won the 15K. He's talking about including speedwork in his future training. Ronnie Wong, who just turned 55, brought a bag
of pears and tomatoes to share with his fellow runners. Originally signed up for the 10K, Ronnie took a wrong turn and completed
the 15K instead. Mikie Nard, usually a short distance runner, completed the 15K distance and came in smiling.
