Tighe Park, Freehold Township, on the cold and sunny, somewhat-windy morning of Sunday, March 17, Saint Patrick’s Day, and the “wearing of the green” was prevalent in most of the competitors’ running outfits.

Coming in a distant second was Kyle Hall, 34, of Bronx, NY at 57:00 and third place went to Jeff Propert, 32, of Wall Township at 58:13 and this was eleven seconds faster than his third-place finish last year. “I want to compliment the organizers; it was a well-planned race; There wasn’t a chance that any of us would take a wrong turn, the markers were easily seen and the course marshals knew their job,” said Segal when asked his thoughts on the event. “It’s definitely not flat,” he said of the course and the weather: “It’s cold and a bit windy but actually good for running.” The champion thinks that today’s time was his best “I thought it was going to be a ‘pancake course,’ (Poss’ term for for this race and is looking forward to competing again next year. completely flat) but I soon saw and felt the hills so I was glad of the “This is my favorite running weather,” said runner-up Kyle Hall and challenge,” said the 5K champion when asked to comment.

She then wished them well in the race with an Irish blessing: “May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be at you back and may the clock put a smile on your face.” She then asked them to make sure they crossed over the plates of the Chrono Tracking System D provided by Elite Racing Systems which would record their racing time. Meldrum then gave a three-com- mand start and the racers were off, following the lead vehicle driven by Michael O’Flaherty, past-president of FARC.
