Knights of Columbus 5K - Sunday, October 13, 2002
The weather was
beginning to look like it might cooperate with the organizers
of the 12th Knights of Columbus 5K Race. The showers that had dampened
the
area for nearly three days were tapering. The sun was trying to peek
out. A
few more runners were showing up at the registration desk. But by the
time the
race started, the showers were back and the race went on through a thick
drizzle. Still, over 60 runners completed the race, then headed for the
pavilion behind Knights Hall for refreshments and awards.
This year's overall men's winner was David Littlefield in 17:28, who
battled
second place finisher Robert Lepley the whole way. Lepley finished in
17:37,
and Pedro Andia ran a PR to take third in 19:15. Among the women, first
place
went to Julie Grubb in 20:06. Jill Garrigan finished second in 21:56 and
Kathleen Heller was third in 22:04. The men's Master's winner was Mike
Dooris,
who completed the course in 19:33. Kathleen Heller was first among
Master's
women. A few teams showed up, but the only competition was in the Mixed
division. There, the Crowe family ran first overall, with race founder
Rob
Crowe leading his daughter Edel and two sons Paul and John around the
course
he designed nearly 20 years ago. The Kasting family finished second even
though Jim Kasting toured the course ahead of the Crowe family. The Old
Fartleks made a guest appearance to take the Men's team crown, and
J-Cubed
Plus One, a team made up of gals with first names starting with "J",
was the
women's winner. Among big-boned runners, overall winner David
Littlefield was
the Clydesdale champ and Jill Garrigan the Athena winner.
Net proceeds from the Knights Race go to the Tom Kleban Recovery Fund
and the
Schlow Memorial Library Children's Department. Race Co-Directors Marty
and
Vicky Mazur would like to thank our sponsors. Without their donations of
money, goods, prizes, and services, the net donation we could make to
our
charities would be much lower. This year's sponsors were the Nittany
Valley
Running Club, the Knights of Columbus Council No. 4678, Tom Cali of
RE/MAX
Realty, Rapid Transit Sports, Appalachian Outdoors, Nittany Bank, The
Boal
Mansion and Columbus Chapel, Saint's Cafe, Perkins, Dick's Sporting
Goods,
Webster's Cafe Bookstore, Target, Penn Skates, Weis Markets, and Danone
International.
We'd also like to thank our volunteers, who made this year's race a
pleasure
to run. They were Dave Eggler, Greg Fredericks, Steve Bodner, Mike
Casper,
Elizabeth Novack, Mike Dooris, the Lepley family, the Kleban family,
and Andy
and Christina Mazur. Special thanks also to Shawn Rogacs of the Knights
of
Columbus.
