It was a chilly morning and a hilly course, and Samuel had never run the Challenge before, but his 18:40 was still the third-fastest winning time in the history of the race. Droze's 18:45 made him the fastest master runner in the race. Kurt Dietrich, a Lincoln High cross-country alum, took third in 19:36, while master runner Duane Evans was fourth in 20:21.
Janie Leacock was second in the women's standings and Jamie Leacock finished just steps ahead of Jennie Merchant to take second in the women's standings, 25:02 to 25:05. Leacock and Merchant were twelfth and thirteenth overall. Fran McLean was the first woman master and fourth female finisher, 26th overall in 28:46.
The TMH For Life Challenge is hosted by Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare to promote wellness in the Tallahassee community. In addition to the 5K, the event also includes a 3K walk, health screenings, and activities. Gulf Winds Track Club of Tallahassee chip-timed the 2019 TMH For Life Challenge.
