10 miler, 5K, Caffé Gelato, waffle cone

Caffé Gelato waffle cone logoThe annual Caffé Gelato Waffle Cone 10 Miler and 5K run/walk (new this year) will be held on Sunday, Oct. 29, at 9 a.m. The 10 Miler is the quintessential Creek Road run, as the course takes you out Creek Road along White Clay Creek all the way up into Pennsylvania’s White Clay Preserve before reversing course and heading back to Newark. The event includes a buffet brunch afterward.

You can register online for the ten miler at a pre-registration cost of $40 (by noon on Thursday, Oct. 26) or day-of cost of $50, but Caffé Gelato owner and CRR Ryan German is offering a special price of $20 to all official Creek Road Runners. Simply email Ryan and say “I’m a Creek Road Runner and I want to register for the event.” Then bring $20 with you to the registration table during the day of the event and indicate when you register that you are an official “Creek Road Runner.”

Creek Road Runners thank Ryan for this generous offer!

The Caffé Gelato Waffle Cone Ten Miler, which features pretty much the entire length of Creek Road and some of its off-shoot trails (well into Pennsylvania and back), featured three age-group winners on Sunday, as well as a couple notable performances.

parsonscCRR Bill Rose came in 16th overall out of 269 participants in winning the 55-59 age group in a fast 1:08:20. CRR Doug Repetti sneaked in just under the 80-minute mark to win the 60-64s in 1:19:51. On the female side, CRR Christina Parsons took first in the 50-54 age group in a very respectable 1:22:13.

Race host and Caffé Gelato owner CRR Ryan German had a busy morning, placing fourth in his age group (35-39) and 22nd overall with a 1:11:22 effort, finishing second among the Creek Road Runners. Then he helped serve the post-race brunch! CRR David Coker, the third CRR to finish, ran an impressively steady race, placing 35th overall and a solid fourth in the 45-49s in 1:14:48.

Congratulations to all Creek Road Runners who finished, especially with the difficult uphill climb at the end.

10 miler, barton, Caffé Gelato, german, parsons, rose

photo of Bill RoseApparently, the Homecoming 5K (see previous post) did nothing to slow down CRR Bill Rose. Rose won the 55-59 age group in the Caffé Gelato 10 Miler here in Newark on Sunday morning in a very good 1:06:27, placing 17th overall out of 333 finishers. That’s about 6:38 per mile! Well done, Bill.

CRR Sue Barton also completed the unique out-and-back road-and-trail course in 1:33:23.
