Walnut Firehouse 5K

A few of our Spartan team showed up at the Walnut Firehouse 5K this morning.

The start of the race.

Brandon finishes his fastest 5K ever -- 22:20 (I think, for the official time).

Alec did his fastest time of the season and had a really good run -- 25:15. We are proud of his determination.

Alec missed 3rd place by around 10 seconds. He was pretty disappointed, especially since his time was so good. He thinks he would have gotten a trophy if he had not slipped and fallen on a slick bridge.

Kirsten nears the finish line.

This was her fastest time EVER!! She got first place in her age group. We are so proud of her.

The Spartans have such a good team spirit. They all went to finish with Maggie to encourage her to the finish line.

Kirsten and Sarah

Sarah won 2nd place in her age group and Kirsten won 1st.

The Spartans made a very good showing at this race.

Brandon finished 1st in his age group with a time of 22:20; Ben finished 2nd in his age group with a time of 22:58; Alec finished 4th in his age group by just seconds, with a time of 25:15; Ryan finished with a personal best time of 25:35; Kirsten finished with a personal best time of 26:40 and placed 1st; Sarah received a 2nd place trophy; Claire finished with a personal best of 28:16; and Caroline finished with a 3rd place trophy. Jonah and Richard also had their personal best finishes and Maggie ran well too.

I did not get everybody's official times or placing yet. I hope to have that information soon.

Female 10-14 winners.
