Albany athlete Arnoldo DeJesus took second, running 19:33. Ashton Donahue, a senior on the Baconton High boys' cross-country team, placed third in 19:40. Oscar Viquez was the first male master and eleventh male finisher, twelfth overall in 21:59.
Alisa Siminova finished second in the women's standings and thirteenth overall, running 22:14. In a match-up of two Lee County Middle School cross-country runners, sixth-grader Alma Ostrander edged eighth-grader Emily Phillips for third in the women's standings, 23:42 to 23:47. Ostrander and Phillips placed eighteenth and twentieth overall.
The 2017 Will Run For S'Mores 5K was hosted by Wild Side Running, an Albany running store. It's not likely that there were significant proceeds from the event, but if there were, those funds were probably spent on chocolate, marshmallows, and chocolate.
* Eschewing s'mores, Whitehead was in Helen, Georgia winning the Helen Holiday Half-Marathon.
