The Safe Passage 5k was this morning in Cumberland, Maine. A record number of participants showed up this morning, not least because of the passing of Hanley Denning this past Winter. She started the Safe Passage program, which provides education to the children who live in the Guatemala City garbage dump. The race raised about $18,000 for the program. There were 563 finishers, and both the men’s race and the women’s race saw course records.
The race was won by Ethan Hemphill in 15:14, which is 14 seconds than last year’s record setting run. There were 4 Dirigo runners in the top 5. The women’s race was won by Kristin Barry in 17:15, which lowered the women’s record by 23 seconds.
(Results – Photos)
Don Penta says that he will be dropping off the photos this afternoon. I should have them up by Friday. Maybe soon if my AOL dial-up is working fast.
We were able to get the results of the Earth Day 5k
race held in Portland on 21 April. Nice photo of Blaine Moore to go with the results. When I compare the photos to the results. I would say the are a little incomplete after the 40th finisher as we have photos of runners not in the results.
If we are lucky this college student run race might send me corrections after finals week is over.
Yeah, you certainly aren’t going to see any corrections before next week.
Thanks for the heads up on the pictures. I saw the pictures from the law school race; I’m looking forward to the Safe Passage pictures.
Photos are UP!
