FOG 5K, Sumrall
April 5, 2008

Thanks to Anita and Richie Sumrall for directing another great 5K and 1 mile fun run!!  Despite the cloudy, damp weather, there were over 30 participants.  The course was well marked, all runners stayed on track and a good run was had by all.  There were quite a few pacers running this morning and many of them were going to run another race in Petal this evening. I even met a few pacers that I now can put names with faces.   Pacers Bobby Ray Davis and Vicki Copeland were overall male and female, Phillip Wedgeworth won Grandmaster's even while battling an injury, and Master winner Richie Sumrall is coming back strong and healthy after battling numerous plantar foot injuries.  All the pacers running placed in their age group, and Donna Sumrall got a 1st place showing for her birthday.  It was really great seeing all my running friends run so well.  Oh, boy did I want to be out there with them all!! 
 
As usual, there were great gifts for the winners and numerous door prizes.  I highly recommend this race when it comes around next year.....and remember, this was a Gran Prix event!!  This race continues to grow and will only get better with time.  Thanks, once again, for a well run race!! © Audrey
