Chiles High School clock towerEven though it was the week before the school's 2015 Spring Break, during the second week of March Chiles High School in Bradfordville, Florida, was a focus of athletic competition. On Wednesday, 11 March 2015, the school was the site of the Leon County Middle School Relay Meet. On Friday, 13 March 2015, Chiles hosted its annual Frosh-Sophomore Track Meet. And even while Friday's contest was going on, outside the track you could already see the course markers for the race on Saturday morning, 14 March 2015--Chiles High's third annual March Of Dimes 5K.


Florida State University student Joey Castagnaro won the 3.1-mile race, edging master runner Michael Lynch 20:25 to 20:31. Castagnaro is a 2012 graduate of Holy Trinity Academy where he was a standout on the cross-country team. Jason Graham took third in 20:46.


Canadian master runner Mary Brosnan was the first female finisher, placing 14th overal in 25:18. Heather Wilkinson was runner-up in the women's standings, coming in 19th overall in 27:04. Leah Dienger was the third woman, 20th overall in 27:24.


43 athletes finished the race which, as in previous years, started from the Chiles High clock tower. The event is focused on raising funds and awareness for the March of Dimes.
