Wakulla High School senior Adam Carr took the lead early and never relinquished it, winning Saturday's "Run For The Fallen" 5K road race by over 300 meters. Carr's time for the 3.1-mile course was 18:04. The race started at 10:00am on Saturday, 20 March 2010 and took the runners on a circuit of the Florida State University campus on a course that has been used for several other campus races (the First Responders 5K, for example).
The "Run For The Fallen" 5K was hosted by the Collegiate Veterans Association at Florida State University. The race honored United States service members who have made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Signs along the race course served as memorials to those fallen warriors. The event is part of the national "Run For The Fallen" organization, which seeks through running to honor service members who were killed in Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom.Links:
