Rapid Revolutions in Lake Park for Kelly and Morse

4HRacing in his hometown of Lake Park, Georgia, Ryan Kelly won the Lowndes County 4-H club's third annual Run For The Revolution 5K on Saturday morning, 8 June 2013. Kelly's time for the 3.1-mile race was 19:02. A quarter of a minute behind Kelly, Matthew Baun of Valdosta took the runner-up spot in 19:17. Baun is just one summer away from starting his high school distance-running career. Tyler Thurman, already a high school distance runner at Lowndes High School, was third in 20:26. Tom Phillips placed fourth in 20:49, finishing as the first master runner.


Kelsey Morse of Valdosta's Viking Runners Club seems to be winning just about everything on the roads in and around Valdosta this spring. The Run For The Revolution 5K in the Valdosta suburb of Lake Park was no exception. Morse captured the women's title in the race, running 22:36 and placing ninth overall. Following Morse in the female standings, Elizabeth Smith was the female runner-up, finishing 14th overall in 23:10. Another Viking, Makenzee Page, finished as the third female, 16th overall in 23:33. A few steps behind Page, Valdosta master runner Martha Mazurkiewicz was fourth in the women's standings, finishing 17th in 23:38.


63 athletes completed the race, close to the 71 finishers in the Run For The Revolution 5K in 2012. Another 14 finished a one-mile "Clover Trot" fun run at the event. Timing and finish line services were by Valdosta-based A Course/Line, LLC.
