Rain Day 5K Run/Walk results announced
The Rain Day 5K Run/Walk and Kids Fun Run has been in existence for 30 years now, making it one of the nation’s oldest continually running road races. It ranks up there with Rain Day itself and the Jacktown Fair as being one of those events that many just will not miss. The list of runners that participated in the race from as far away as Colorado make it part of their summer ‘can’t miss’ races to trek to participate in.
That bodes well for the Greene County Habitat for Humanity, who counts on proceeds from race entry fees to help defray their operating costs each year.
It was recorded that 250 people participated in the 2008 race.
The overall winner for the day was Brodie Kelley of Confluence, Pa., at a mere 16 years of age with a time of 18:21. Derek Daniel of Fairmont, W.Va. placed second overall. Daniel is 20 years old and came in with a time of 18:28. Rounding out the top three overall winners was Torin Kelley, also of Confluence.
