2013 Thunder Run
March 30, 2013
This inaugural event was put on for the most part by the Parent Teacher Organizations of Rye Elementary Craver Middle School for the direct benefit of their students. It was much more than a 5K run/walk. There was also an untimed 1 mile for those under 12 and two separate Easter Egg Hunts.
All registration was handled by the committee using their own bibs. Medals were given to the top three male and female finishers in the 5K run. Because of overwhelming unusual and late race day registration, (Sheriff Kirk Taylor made the 5K part of his SWAT team’s training. He ran himself.) and the fact that ages were not on the pull tags make the results somewhat unusual. But it was a happy crowd. It will almost certainly become an annual event, more sophisticated as time goes by, but it will be hard to make it more fun.
The first three to cross the finish line and earn medals were Rick Reidhead, a Rye track runner, 19:35; Nick Maroney, 15, who runs cross country and plays basketball at Rye, 20:31; and Ron Nies, 46. The top women runners were Teri Prichard, 24:56; Sara Nies, 18, 25:22; and Sherry Ortiz, 25:50. Susan Nies led the walkers followed by Kim Barickman, and Chelsea Morre.
Due to an error on my part, the times for the walkers and the some of the late runners are mixed up. It appears that there were over 150 finishers in the 5K. Certainly dozens finished the 1 mile and all got ribbons.
