2011 Try Boro Kids 2.5K/5K Run

The Try Boro Kids 2.5K/5K Run was held for the first time on June 3, 2011.  It offered kids the chance to race in two different distances around the beautiful landscape of Gateway Island.  The first race was a 2.5K or 1.55 mile run, which had kids from 6 to 14 years old.  The kids were seperated into corrals based on age and gender and started at sperate times to ensure safety.  The kids then took off on the quest for a fast time on a steamy but comfortable Summer night.  

Off fast were severals girls and boys with the top finisher coming across in 10:10.3, which was Garrett Coleman.  He was quickly followed by Rachel Massaro and Caroline Young, which both finished under 11 minutes.  (See the bottom of this entry for the award winners.)

The 5K was for the truly ambitious runner.  As the kids from the 2.5K race darted through the finish line and received a finisher medal and smoothie from Smoothie King, the 5K runners lined up based on age and gender.  When the gun went off, the kids took off on their journey around the pond, past the spectators, and through 2 water stations.  First through the finish line was Eli Leskinen with a blistering 19:31.1.  First for the girls was Kristen Fuller at 22:46.8.  Below is the award winners for each age group and gender.
