Congratulations to Matt O’Connor (14:38) and Hilary Orf (16:54) who sped home to victories on the men’s and women’s side, respectively, in the GO! St. Louis All-American 5K this past weekend. Not far behind in the men’s field was Matt Lawder in a solid 15:16. On the women’s side, Crystal Harriss showed her strength with a time of 17:20 and a 2nd place finish. Margaret Lyons powered through to a 4th place finish with a 17:27, less than a year after giving birth to her third child. Brian Bauer was the 2nd Master’s runner and finished 1st in his age group with a time of 17:56. They all surely went home with apple pies and some with extra cash in their pockets.
