Another PB - Clark's Toyota 5 Miler

It was cloud and 6 degrees.

The Clark's Toyota 5 Miler at Scott Clark's House. The loop course on Linkletter Rd, Confederation Trail and Kinsman Rd.

Connor McGuire won the race and Kelly MacDonald for the top female.

I finished in 30:45, beat my 5 mile PB time by 3:25 faster than 2008 Clark's 5 Miler and came in 6th out of 77 runners.

Tomorrow I run in Emerald in the YMCA Run. It is first time back on the trail in Emerald since my 2006 Tip to Tip run.

Official Result: 6th out of 77
5 Miles in 30 minutes, 45 seconds

New female course record set at Clark’s Toyota Five-Mile Run

LINKLETTER – Kelly MacDonald of Montague set a new female course record in the seventh annual Clark’s Toyota Five-Mile Run here Saturday morning.

The 22-year-old education student at St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, N.S., stopped the clock in 31 minutes seven seconds (31:07), seven seconds faster than the previous standard of 31:48. Roya MacDonald set that record in 2008.

The race’s overall winner was 19-year-old Connor McGuire of Summerside in 26:46. That was nine seconds off last year’s course record by Mike MacKinnon.

Overall, 78 runners took part in race. All proceeds will be donated to the P.E.I. Children’s Wish Foundation.
