The Start of the Avon Day 5K

A large turn out of 800 or so runners participated in this year's Avon Day 5K.  The race in its 13th year has grown to be a favorite at the Jersey Shore. 

The weather along the ocean front start  was cool with a nice breeze cooling the runners.  As the runners moved westward into town the temperature was about 15 degrees warmer and the runners felt the difference.  As they proceeded back to the ocean front though it again cooled down and they were able to sprint to the finish on Ocean Avenue.

The men's winner was JSRC's Luciano Deolivera of Long Branch shown finishing on the left n a time of 16:29 and for the women it was Claire Kim of Fullerton, California shown breaking the tape on the right  in a time of 18:22 .

Runners were treated to plenty of refreshments, massages and lots of random awards which included the drawing for two bikes.

Congratulations to the Avon First Aid Squad and all the volunteers who made for another great event..

With 9500 Registered runners and probably a lot more unregistered the Annual Spring Lake 5 was another awesome event.  It is  one of the largest if not largest 5 mile races in the United States and maybe the world and beyond.

The throng of runners gathered on Ocean Avenue along the ocean front.  With music blasting at the start the runners took off going north through the arches which separate Spring lake and Belmar then around Lake Como onto Third Avenue and down Third Avenue in downtown Spring Lake where throngs of spectators greeted the runners.  Then around the Spring Lake full of ducks and geese past St Catherine's Church and back to Ocean Avenue for a sprint to the finish by the Essex and Sussex. 

The Men's winner was Craig Segal shown on the left who finished the 5 mile course in 25:12 and for the women repeating from last year it was Noel Brock shown breaking the tape on the right in a time of 27:43.

Thanks from Beth

I want to thank the JSRC and my friends and supporters for a great birthday party and helping make a dream come true. For one week I was able to pretend I wasn't sick and I got to act like a kid in Disney world. Mickey Mouse and the whole gang said to say HI !

I hope to make a couple of races just to cheer you on, I no longer can even walk a 5K. I am on hospice and pain management and have oxygen, but I still can get out when I have the energy, when I do I'll be at the races.

Thank you for your prayers and kind thoughts. Your friendship means a lot to me. Thanks.    Beth Patterson
