There was no Swine Time Run in 2017. Sometimes a 10K and sometimes a 5K, the race had been held in Climax, Georgia annually on the Saturday after Thanksgiving since the late 1970s. But on Saturday morning, 24 November 2018, the Swine Time Run was back. Bainbridge, Georgia master runner Ridge Harper won the 5K race, running 19:55. Viviana Schuyler, a sophomore on the Bainbridge High cross-country team, took first in the women's division, placing third overall in 20:20.After skipping 2017, the Swine Time Run wasn't unchanged. Miles and Minutes, LLC, of Tallahassee, Florida timed the race, the first time that the Swine Time had been professionally timed. The course was also USATF-certified, another first in four decades of Swine Time history.
Not far behind Harper, master runner Duane Evans was second overall in 20:01. Landon Watts, a frosh athlete on the Bainbridge High cross-country team, placed third in the men's standings and fourth overall in 20:55.
Madison Sims, a sixth-grader on the Fort Braden Middle School cross-country team, took second on the women's side and and twelfth overall in 25:39. Adrian Parker was third in the women's division and fifteenth overall in 26:48. The top woman master was Juli DeGrummond, the fifth female finisher and seventeenth overall in 27:49.
47 athletes finished the 2018 Swine Time 5K. Look for the race and the Swine Time Festival to return on Saturday morning, 30 November 2019.
