Rotary 5K Run for Polio and Quarter Mile Kids Run

Saturday 10 April 2010 Jim Barnett Park Winchester, VA


RESULTS & PHOTOS ARE UP! THANKS FOR RUNNING!
Many thanks to all who took part in the 11th annual Rotary 5K Run for Polio! We had great weather, 83 finishers in the 5K, a number of children taking part in the informal kids run, fine help from a crew of great volunteers, and perhaps most importantly, donuts.

Both the overall results and the age group results are available, currently in plain text format, and we've also uploaded 262 photos from the race. (We apologize for missing a few runners; the photographer's ancient camera was having issues.) If you spot any errors in the results or if you have any questions, please send an e-mail to the results guy.

Thanks again for participating, and hopefully we'll see a lot of you back at Jim Barnett Park next April!

The 11th annual Rotary 5K Run for Polio & Quarter Mile Kids Run will be held on Saturday 10 April 2010 at the Rotary Shelter in Winchester's Jim Barnett Park, with the 5K starting at 9 AM and the kids run being held at about 10 AM, just before the 5K awards ceremony.The 5K course follows a rolling USATF-certified loop on paved roads through the park and the Shenandoah University campus. (Course map, elevation profile.)

5K awards will go to the top three males & females in the following divisions: Overall, Masters, 9 & under, 10-14, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, and 70 & over. All children in the kids run will receive medals.

Entry fees for the 5K are $16 for SVR members and $17 for non-members, while the kids run is $11 with a t-shirt or $4 without a shirt. Race day registration is welcome! The fees remain the same on race day. (Preregistration is encouraged, so that we have an idea of how many participants to expect.) Proceeds from the race will go towards Rotary International's polio eradication efforts!

Driving directions appear on the race flyer. The Rotary Shelter does not have a street address, but this Google map points to a location just east of the shelter. You can also try the coordinates "39.171, -78.1548" for the entrance to the shelter's parking lot. (A map of the area can be found here; it is also on the flyer.)

If you have any questions about the event, please contact race director Chris Northrup at (540) 327-9003 or chris@northrupconsulting.com. The race is being conducted by the Winchester Rotary Club with help from the Shenandoah Valley Runners.

(The Webmaster hopes to have time to update this site more fully with past results, event records, more detailed driving directions, and more.)
