Forty FurlongsFebruary 14, 2009Greg Ayres & Jason MyersThe Forty Furlongs Race was held at a new venue this year in Westminster utilizing the city's Big Dry Creek Trail. This year Valentine's Day in Westminster began 21 F and remained very cold and overcast but with little to no wind. A strong showing of 85 runners and one race walker completed forty furlongs (5 miles) on a relatively flat and fast out and back course. Charlie Hildago was the overall male winner with a very impressive time of 27:03. Callie Bradley was the overall female winner with a strong finishing time of 34:14. Both winners received first place ribbons along with a gift certificate for a free pair of shoes from our host and major sponsor Road Runner Sports. Speedster Keith Johnson chased the younger runners and finished 7th overall, first master with a time of 29:12! Also, Barry Merrill, of Cape Cod Massachusetts, put forth a tremendous effort finishing in 10th place overall and first place in his age division (male 50-54) with a time of 30:50. Lincoln High School was well represented with 11 total runners. Victor Salvatierra won this division (14-18 High School) with at time of 34:59. I want to thank all the volunteers that made the Forty Furlongs a safe and successful race this year: Joe Sanchez, Connie Ahrnsbrak, Rosalie Murch, Ken Simons, Bruce Kirschner, Ivan Monk, Nanette Benvegnu, Tom Alison, Joe Baird, Mark and Natalie Dreher, and my better half Kelly Chilvers. Also, many thanks to all the race sponsors: Great Harvest Bread, Starbucks, BJ's Brewhouse, Buffalo Wild Wings, Splitz Bowling, Dave & Busters, Floyd's Barbershop, Elements Massage, and the Ice Centre Promenade. I want to add my special thanks and appreciation to Julie Johnson and Road Runner Sports for their very generous help and support. Julie and Road Runner Sports not only provided gift certificates and water bottles for the top finishers but also opened the store early for registration and invited us back inside the store for the award presentations. This was very much appreciated by all the participants and volunteers on a very cold morning ! |
