The heat and humidity caused some lethargy for 5K runners this evening. But the weather didn't deter Pat Wojtas from giving directions to the nearest gas station for a motorist on Mechanics Street, all while running the road race. Believe it or not!
(In related news, Pat Wojtas departs this week for a new job in San Francisco. We at the CMS 5K Series wish her the best.)
The team prize went to daughter and father Paradis, who edged out the Sicards and the McCarrons. The first veteran across the tape was Jim Shope, Sr. And Gregg Marcotte won this week's random draw.
Elian has left the building.
