Tallahassee's top 5K road times in 2013

The Tallahassee Turkey Trot 5K was the Capital City's last scheduled road race at that distance on a certified course this year. Therefore we can close the ledger on Tallahassee's 2013 5K performance list. The last race produced the fastest time in town this year; Kevin Sullivan's 15:28. Sullivan also led the 2013 Tallahassee 10K performance list. Like the 10K list, Stanley Linton was immediately behind Sullivan. Linton had the second-best 5K time of 15:46 as well as five of the top-ten performances on the list. Maclay cross-country coach Gary Droze had the fastest time of any master runner in Tallahassee this year, running 16:56 at the FSECC 5K on October 31.


Kayleigh Tyerman's time of 16:51 from the Women's Distance Festival 5K stands as the best woman's performance in Tallahassee during 2013. The fastest 5K by a female master belonged to Thomasville's Mary Anne Grayson, who ran 19:47 at Gulf Winds Track Club's Palace Saloon 5K back in April.


That's it for 2013. At least one local race on a certified course failed to publish results, but otherwise I believe the list to be complete. Meanwhile, next year and the 2014 rankings are on the way. Your first chances to make the 2014 list will be at Gulf Wind Track Club's Bowlegs 5K Run For Scholarship (FL12001EBM) on January 18 and the Red Fox 5K (FL11132EBM) on January 25. Keep your racing shoes handy.
