The 6th annual 8K for 88-CRIME was a huge success! Over 100 runners, walkers, and volunteers turned out to enjoy a flat, fast course on a morning of cloudless skies and cool temperatures. The 8k race was won by Ian Johnson with a time of 26:23. The first female finisher was Paula Morrison with a time of 32:04. The dog race was won by Troy Beeman. After the race, dozens of kids participated in an egg hunt across the plaza grounds, picking up hundreds of Easter eggs!
Many thanks to 88-CRIME, Aldea, and every participant for helping to make the event a success! Pictures and results are posted online.
