Three records fell this year!
Incredibly, the women’s course record, set by Helen Cooper in 1982, was broken by all three of the top women. Kimberly Krezonoski finished 3rd in 53:23. Tori Bouck came 2nd in 53:12. And Michelle Krezonoski crossed the line 1st in 52:55. Congratulations to all three…what an amazing accomplishment!
To all the runners (144 of you registered), thank you for attending our little race!
To the many volunteers, what would we do without you?
The Saltos Athletics club thanks you!
