New Year, Same Mask

Behold, the Masked AvengerSaturday, 8 January 2011 was a whole week into the new year, but still early enough for Valdosta's First Race Of The New Year 5K. In an outcome that looked awfully similar to several Valdosta races of the year just gone by, the Masked Avenger ran to an 18:23 victory. Valdosta's Matt Triick took second in 18:56, while third place and the top master's spot went to Scot Gardner of Naylor, Georgia in 19:14. Gardner was followed across the line by Lowndes High runner David Jones (4th, 20:48), who edged out his teammate Trevor Sirmans (5th, 20:49) for the top junior spot.


Valdosta's Dr. Gretchen Bielmyer captured the women's title, finishing 12th overall in 21:46. Atlanta's Christy Kingsbury (14th, 22:25) was the second woman across the line, just ahead of Hannah Moorman (16th, 22:26) of Douglas, Georgia, the third female and first female junior. The top woman master was Stephanie Adams (36th, 26:43) of Jennings, Florida; Adams was the 12th female finisher.


As its name indicates, the event was indeed Valdosta's first road race of 2011, as well as the first race in Valdosta's Grand Prix series. The race started on North Ashley Street in front of Get Active Running & More and then looped around the streets of the Five Points area of Valdosta--a course used by so many Valdosta races that there must be a good map of it somewhere. 69 athletes finished the race.
