08.03.10 - Cherokee Park
A really neat concept: start with 2 divisions ("Bambi" for beginners/walkers & "Buck" for moderate/advanced runners). Have a short (1- & 2.6-mile), simple, no-frills race, late in the afternoon (6:30 start), at a different park on each of the 5 Tuesdays in August this year. This was the inaugural one, at Cherokee Park just south of the Grainger / Hamblen county line. Like most of the MRHBC races this year, the results were compiled using 3x5 cards, with only name and sex of the finisher.
Josiah Roberts claimed overall #1, Lawson Burrow was 2nd, & Simeon Roberts outkicked Phil Roberts in the "home stretch" to take the #3 spot. Andee "Punky" Swann continued her string of wins this year, with Tracy Brooks #2, and Ashton Bunch with a tremendous kick ran Karen Hatfield down in the final yards for 3rd.
