Memorial Day three-peat for Rice in Valdosta

One day someone other than Chris Rice will win Valdosta's Memorial Day 5K. That day has not yet arrived, though. On Saturday, 30 May 2011, Valdosta's third annual Memorial Day 5K was marked by Rice successfully defending his 2010 title and winning the race for the third straight time, running 17:10.


Maybe next year.


Valdosta's Masked Avenger finished runner-up in 17:52, while Cairo's Stephen Robbins took third in 18:28. The fastest master runner in the race was Lynn Burnett of Livingston, Tennessee; Burnett placed eighth overall in 20:57.


Valdosta's own Alice Smoot was the first woman as well as the first woman master, finishing ninth overall in 21:06. 14th overall in 21:53, Dr. Gretchen Bielmyer was the women's runner-up behind Smoot once again.


102 athletes finished the race, up from last year's field of 79 finishers.
