Crystal clear late fall weather brought out more than 200 runners and walkers for the last race of the season.
In the 5K, Bert Rodriguez ran 15:37 to win bhy 40 seconds, and five-time Olympic Trials qualifier Alisa Harvey finished fourth overall in 17:25 to win the women's race.
In the 10K, Christian Falmagne ran so fast that officials thought he was in the 5K, and Jenny Louise Mlinarcik thrilled her fans and teammates by finishing first among women.
Race director Rolland Elliott and presented holiday ornaments and fruit cakes to all award winners and thanked his volunteers Jim Darr, Kate DeAngelis, Cliff Dewitt, Larry Dickerson, Toni Letaw, Al Morris, Don Riggs, Jennifer Stephens, and the results crew: Steve Forman, Pat Griffith, James Scarborough, Dr. Larry Washington, and Jay Wind.
The 10K served as the USATF Potomac Valley Assocation 2006 championship, awards to be announced shortly.
