RACE RESULTS AND PICTURES ON FACEBOOK

The majority of the club's race results and pictures are on our Facebook page. It is much easier to post to FB, along with numerous pictures. Plus, everyone who is a member can post their own pictures and results. For our local events, I will continue to post them here. (Please note that sometimes the race results do not post correctly such as the 2011 Swamp Run. I apologize that they are a " jumbled up mess"
but after numerous attempts at trying to type them on individual lines, I finally gave up.)

If you are on FB but not on the club's FB page, go to Okefenokee Track Club and click "Like".
(I was not able to change the page to Okefenokee Track & Cycling Club
without starting over, but I was able to use our new logo.)

32nd Annual Okefenokee Swamp Run 10K and 1 Mile Fun Run - March 28, 2009


Another successful year! Thanks to each and every person who volunteered in one way or another for contributing to a good day. With lots of prayer, the rain held off, the temp was comfortable, no one left without a T-shirt, once again the pancake breakfast was a hit (though not without a few "kinks" thrown in), and there were many compliments. Also, thanks to Brad Williams at the Journal-Herald for coming out to take photos and for giving us a 2-page spread! Great job!
The 10K began with 128 runners and ended with 127. Not bad! There were 135 participants in the 1 mile fun run. Ashley Backstrom graced us by singing the The Star Spangled Banner. Park Manager Bob Boyne had the honor of blowing the horn to start the 10K. Track club members Matthew Garmon won his second consequtive year, while Tiffany Cochran was the first lady to cross the finish line.

Photo: 2009 Sam Gornto Sportsmanship Award was presented to Debbie Yawn. It is given yearly to the OTC member who most exemplifies sportmanship in its highest form. Debbie is a long time member who traded her running shoes for working shoes the past 3-4 years. She has been there to help set up the pancake breakfast and she is one of the last to leave after clean up. I'm sure she'd rather be socializing than flipping pancakes though she has become quite the expert!
