Welcome back to the Freehold Area Running Clubs’ 21st Annual Winter Series. Today’s series opened up with 108 finishers crossing the finish line. Many of the past participants were joined by many new faces. Hopefully, this will make for new good lasting friendships and great future competition.
The temperatures were comfortable for this first week’s start. Check out the picture on the WEB site photos to see how many people ran in shorts. However, an earlier morning shower and an overcast sky may have kept a few away.
No course records today but still good times were recorded. New comer Jesus Resendiz of Perth Amboy was our overall winner. He completed the course in a time of 16:45. A veteran to the series, although young (13 years old), Briana Jackucewicz, Farmingdale led the woman with an 18:13.Out of the corral first for the Clydesdale’s was Jim Pate, Browns Mills 21:57. Ben Ottmer, Lakewood 31:29 and Fran Emanuel, Brick 34:33 were the men and women race walker winners. The complete results are posted on the WEB site.
The awards were candy jars and yes, filled with candy. Who said runners can’t treat themselves to a little sweets once in awhile. The awards will vary from week to week.
