Check out the race results and photographs from the River Gorge Trail Race. We raised a good amount of money for the Cumberland Trail Conference, and I think everyone had a good time. No major injuries.
Saturday morning was a beautiful day here in Tennessee; blue skies and cool temperatures made this the perfect day for a trail race. About 230 runners showed up at Prentice Cooper as the sun rose over the Tennessee River Gorge. After packet pick up and registration, the 10.2 mile racers began the race, and 6.5 mile racers started at 9:00.
Rock Creek race team members and employees were well represented. On the 10.2 mile course, Geno Phillips finished third. Hamilton Place employee Clay Werner finished fourth. Chad Wamack and Sheridan Ames finished 17th and 18th. On the 6.5 mile course, Tom Sell and Jim Farmer came across the line in first and second place (in the photo above, Jim is in front, Tom behind).
