Over 70 kids under the age of 10 ran the 3.1 mile Rooster Run on Saturday, but there were plenty of big kids, too. In fact, 82-year-old Irene McCarthy of Newtown finished in a very respectable 38:52. Way to go, Irene!
Females in Training, those energetic 8-12 years old who have been training together since early April, created a tie-dyed sea of green as they warmed up and got a pep talk before the race.
If you'd like to view the official results, check them out on the Park and Rec website under "additional links." And remember, no matter how slow you run, you're faster than your couch.
