Several Creek Road Runners enjoyed success over the past couple weekends of racing.

CRR Bruce Weber finished 9th overall among the 344 participants and placed 1st in his age group (55-59) with a 1:05:59 (that’s 6:06 per mile!). Finishing 15th overall, CRR Bill Rose placed 2nd in the 55-59s in 1:09:06. Three others captured age-group 3rd place finishes: CRR Dan Weile (40-44) in 1:13:34, CRR David Coker (45-49) in 1:17:01, and CRR Bob Opila (60-64) in 1:38:24.

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.

Creek Road Runners is an informal association of runners/joggers who frequent the only quiet scenic road out of Newark, Delaware.
