This week's 5K race featured several strong runners. Alan Bernier drove down from New Hampshire to run a sub-17:00 and take first place. Mimi Corcoran won the ladies' race in a speedy 18:34, averaging better than 6 minutes a mile. In all, 9 runners finished under 20:00, and every runner beat 30:00. Nice job!
This week's trivia tidbit -- What do Toronto, Canada; Vienna, Austria; and Houston, Texas have in common? Each of these famous cities enjoyed the same brisk, wintry weather on race day as Worcester, Mass!
