The Start of the Sgt. Pat's 5K in Long Branch

A huge field of about 1000 runners competed in the Annual Sgt Pat's 5K Race in Long Branch. The race commemorated the memory of Sgt Patrick King the fallen Long Branch Police Officer. The weather was on the chilly side early but as the start drew near the sun could be seen peeking through the clouds. When the runners finished the sun was shining through and the awards ceremony was blessed with pleasant sunshine no doubt as a thanks from someone above!.

The overall winner (shown on the left finishing) was Pedro Espinosa of Freehold in a time of 16:09 and for the women it was Stephanie Zottoli of Old Bridge (shown on the right) in a time of 19:14

Congratulations to Race Director, Phil Hinck and all the volunteers who made for a successful event.

Running for Kerrie

Team Kerrie’s Krew would like to let you know of the upcoming events we will be participating in to raise money for our friend, Kerrie Guibord. Kerrie was diagnosed with ALS in 2004. ALS(Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that attacks nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, resulting in muscle weakness and atrophy. ALS is also known as "Lou Gehrig’s Disease". Kerrie’s Krew members are Tracy Donnelly, Donny Sutton, Chris Lopez and Peggy Thorn. Our team will be running the Delaware Marathon Relay on May 18,2008 and finishing up with the Baltimore Marathon in Oct 2008, participating as individual runners. Our hope is to raise funds to help Kerrie with her financial struggles. Kerrie now has a live-in caregiver. There are significant medical costs, along with living expenses.

Kerrie is known to many as" Coach Kerrie". She has trained hundreds of aspiring runners and tri-athletes. Kerrie herself has completed 17 marathons, 5 tri-athalons, 5 Multiple Sclerosis 170 mile bike tours, 5 Adventure races and many other races and events. Kerrie has selflessly raised thousands of dollars for those in need. She has always been an inspiration to those fortunate enough to train with her or simply know her. She continues to be an inspiration with her positive attitude and unyielding support and concern for others.

We understand that there are donation requests for many causes. It is our hope that you will consider supporting our cause. All donations will go directly to Kerrie.

Please make you tax deductible donation to: CHARITY HOUSE/KERRIE’S KREW, PO BOX 252, SEA GIRT, NJ 08750

We will be wearing our Kerrie’s Krew shirts and carrying Kerrie’s spirit in our hearts! Thank you for you generous donation,

The Start of the Half Way to Brielle Day 5K

The rain did not deter the throngs of runners who participated in the first annual Half Way to Brielle Day 5K this past Saturday, March 8th. The rain held of for the start as the runners lined up but there was a heavy down pour about 5 minutes into the race which cooled the runners off. The rain let up as the first group of runners finished.

The men's winner ( shown on the left) was in a time of 17:55 and for the women it was Karen Charles (shown on the left) of Spring Lake Heights in a time of.20:20

Congratulations to the Brielle First Aid Squad for a great race. Thanks to all the sponsors particularly Simko's which hosted a great post race buffet.
