Well, watching all the Big Boys (and Girls) was entertaining, but it is always the kids who steal the show. In the 12-and-Under Fun Run Mile, 11-year-old Jarret Pelley crossed the line first for the boys in 6:19. First for the girls was Sarah VanKirk, 9, with a time of 6:42.
Taking a little more casual approach to the whole mile were the
participants in the Charity Mile Health Walk. First to complete
the trek was Zach Foster, 10, of Shadyside. The first female finisher
was Aspen Matlock of West Alexander, Pa.
