On Saturday, November
25, 462 people finished one of the three races at the Gulf
Coast Marathon, Half Marathon, and 5K.The weather was
perfect with temperatures in the low 40s for the start of
the race. After a few instructions by Leonard Vergunst, we
were off and running. The Pine Belt Pacers were well
represented. Sheryl Chatfield finished the half marathon
fifth overall and captured the Masters award. Phillip
Wedgeworth was able to win the Masters in the 5K. Ian Bergin
placed in his age group in the Marathon. After the race
everyone enjoyed good food and plenty of drink. One good
thing about Katrina is that the Stennis Space Center had to
build a new area which we were able to use for registration
and the awards. Also the Cyprus House has been remodeled and
a new screened patio area has been added. All in all this
was a great experience for all of the runners.
