The
Gate River Run 15K in Jacksonville, Florida now bills itself as "The Largest 15K in the USA!" It's questionable whether or not this is a selling point. As Tallahassee runner Chris Dirmann pointed out, "It's a great race, but perhaps a bit too crowded for those of us slower people." Still, those numbers argue that the River Run has been successful in attracting hordes of entries, the elite runners coming for the USATF championship or a piece of a purse, as well as the oddballs running the race dressed as the Batman. And the 2011 River Run 15K on March 12 was also successful in attracting 150 Tallahassee runners--even more than 115 who made the trip to Jacksonville
last year. That's more than show up for some Tallahassee road races. Of course, those are
just 5K runs.
First among the 14,972 finishers, Mo Trafeh won the race in 42:58, with Jennifer Rhines taking the women's title in 49:31. Chris Lake was the best of the Tallahassee runners. The 2010 Turkey Trot 15K champion ran a personal best time of 49:33, cracking 50:00 for the first time and placing 64th overall. Jane Johnson was Tallahassee's fastest woman in the race, running 64:17. But here they all are, all 150 of them.

Wow, Chris Lake sub-50. Very impressive! Thanks Herb for the write-up even though it's outside your 100-mile coverage map.
ReplyDeleteWhen a lot of the region's athletes compete at a mega-event outside the region, I'll do a write-up...time permitting. Several dozen runners at Boston is a good candidate. Three guys in a local 5K in Yazoo City, not so good.
ReplyDeleteOf course, if I run the race, geography is out the window. ;-)
Herb.
Yes- it looks a like there will be a strong group from Tallahassee in Boston this year too. Maybe even more than ran the "Race for Autistic Kittens" 5K.
ReplyDeletelooks like my chip mins/secs got a little mixed up in your river run report. ;)

Thanks! I was able to fix that, and about four other errors that I created the same way. In order to screw up truly vast amounts of data, it really takes a spreadsheet.
