When the athletes arrived at Hal Brady Park on Saturday morning, 23 January 2016, for the third annual Resolution 5K, they were not only facing "beautiful hills" but some rare North Florida snow flurries. Cross country running takes place on all kinds of terrain in all kinds of conditions, though, so no one was dissuaded. In fact, a record crowd of 79 athletes finished the 3.1-mile race. The fastest of these was master runner Dan Clark, who won the race in an event record time of 18:57. Gainesville athlete Ani Veltcheva took second place overall in 21:08, winning the women's title.
Master runner Brandon Labonte was second in the men's standing, coming in third overall in 22:31. Scott Carter was the third male finisher, fourth overall in 22:47.
Sheridan Plasencia, the sophomore ace of the Fort White High cross country team, was second on the women's side, placing fifth overall in 24:25. Elisabeth Diamond of Bell, Florida, was the top woman master and the third female finisher, ninth overall in 25:32.
Proceeds from the Resolution 5K are used for the food and clothing outreach ministries of Fellowship Church.
