Race temps were in the 40s with no wind. We had a solid turnout of 82 runners, with lots of kids, some even pre-school age that did the entire 2 miles. Justin Chaston also came close to breaking the 10 minute barrier for this race as he gears up for some competition in London later this year. This month's most improved runner was Kenneth Gregoire as he was 2:53 under his handicap. Way to go, Kenneth! This month ends the 12-month cycle for the Nielson Challenge. The yearly winner is Kevin Wood with 2 wins. We'll start a new yearly cycle in December, so come on out and join us the first Saturday in December.
