MARION — More than 30 participants raced 5 kilometers around Washburn Park on Sunday, Oct. 13 to raise money for the cross country and track teams at Old Rochester Regional High School.
Altogether, 36 runners and walkers competed in the “alumni fun run” 5K, raising more than $500 for the Old Rochester cross country and track programs, according to coach Jessica Pilla.
“It was a really great event,” Pilla said.
Nolan Bushnell, an Old Rochester senior and cross country runner, won the race with a time of 18:31.
This was the first year the race has been held, according to Pilla.
“We used this year as a trial run to gauge interest, and look forward to seeing it grow and improve in coming years,” Pilla said.
