And they're off! The race started at the Elizabeth
Randolph Lewis YMCA, behind the community cemetery,
behind Wachovia, through the Courthouse Square, circling
in front of the Rescue Squad, behind the Sheriff's
office, around the ballfields behind May Memorial, and
than back to the YMCA for a 3 Mile Finish! What a
great day ... cool temperatures ... clear skies ... deep
breaths, lots of sweat ... but cheers and smiles as they
crossed the finish line! click each photo to enlarge! |

The
race began and ended at the Powhatan YMCA in Fighting
Creek Park (just west of Powhatan Courthouse). The
course is flat with a few gentle hills. The
Village Run was established in 1981, and over the years
has contributed thousands of dollars to charity.
However, the primary purpose of the Village Run is to
provide a quality road race in a rural setting.
Awards were given to top male and female finishres,
first male and female finishers from Powhatan, and to
top three finishers in each age division. All
proceeds to benefit the Powhatan High School Cross
Country and Track Teams. |
