A few runners from the Rocky Mount Endurance Club went to Wilson this weekend to compete in the Nash Street Mile 10k. This shady and scenic course has several turns throughout some of Wilson's prettiest neighborhoods.

John Batchelor took 3rd overall in the race with a time of 38:00. A 6:07 pace would be quick enough to win most races in our area, but the small race had two other strong runners to compete against. John's other half Jeanette also ran posting a 57:51 and taking 7th in her age group.

Larry McKeel took 22nd overall and 8th in his age group with a 49:41. Tom Thurman had another strong performance taking 1st in his age group with a 54:11. Right on the heels of Tom was Jon Shingleton finishing in 54:53. Arthur Bennett also took on the 10k challenge and posted a 58:03 finishing time.

Complete results are available online.  You can also view age groups awards.  Great job everyone!  Please keep supporting local racing.  As always, we welcome any race reports.
