No joke, comedian Dustin Reynolds wins Thomasville's Heritage Run

On Saturday morning, 16 March 2019, the Thomasville, Georgia YMCA brought their Heritage Run 5K back for a second annual running. Once again, the race was held on the weekend of Saint Patrick's Day. Once again, Dustin Reynolds demolished the competition. Reynolds is a stand-up comedian from Brinson, Georgia, but no one was laughing as he finished more than half a kilometer ahead of the next runner, posting a winning time of 18:58. Rosalie White of Thomasville was the first woman in the race, placing fifth overall in 23:11.


Joshua May, an eighth-grader on the MacIntyre Park Middle School cross-country team, nabbed the runner-up spot with a 21:12. Gavin Wilson took third in 22:30. Chris Bracken was the fastest master runner in the Heritage Run, finishing fourth overall in 22:49.


Megan Young was second in the women's standings, placing seventh overall in 23:57. Thomasville's Nancy Herring was the top woman master and third female finisher, ninth overall in 25:11.


174 athletes finished the 2019 Heritage Run 5K. Another 83 completed a 5K walk, and 83 more finished a one-mile fun run. Gulf Winds Track Club of Tallahassee, Florida chip-timed the races.
