Riverfest wins for Hanson and Bontrager in Chattahoochee

RiverFestSneads and Chattahoochee are almost twin villages in Florida. They may be in separate time zones and on opposite sides of the Apalachicola River, but the US 90 bridge over that river keeps them connected. On Saturday, 3 September 2011, Sneads High School senior and distance runner Stephen Hanson crossed the river to win Chattahoochee's Riverfest 5K, clocking 20:56. Another runner from west of the Chattahoochee, Marianna's Mark McCarra, was the runner-up and top master in 21:28. Jody Bontrager of Fitness Evolution took the women's title, placing third overall in 21:49. It was Bontrager's second win in Chattahoochee this year; back in February she was the top woman at the Chattahoochee Smoochie 5K.

25 athletes finished the race, an inaugural event and part of the third annual Riverfest in Chattahoochee.
