Thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s Gospel Feet 5K: Hit the Grounds Running! It was a wonderful evening with 79 participants raising $5,502.41 in support of the Missionary Society’s work to spread the gospel across borders. The first male finisher was Joshua Coleman of Shiloh SDB Church in New Jersey. The first female finisher was Gabi Osborn of SDB Church of Boulder, CO. First place in the junior runner category went to Aaron Barbee of the German SDB Church, Salemville, PA.
Thanks especially to all the race volunteers who encouraged the runners and kept them on track along the course. They were Zack Floyd, Keith McCall, Paula Reynolds, Gabriela Parra, Susie Lamphare, Leigh Anne Crouch, Nathan Crouch, Aaron Crouch, Scott Paulin, Chris Paulin, Samantha Fick, and Bill Fick. And thank you to the additional volunteers who helped with registration, timing, and race setup: Becca Uhlich, Jessica Pradetto, Katrina Goodrich, Melissa Noel, Jon Cruzan, Beth Brown, Deva-Ann Levy, and Victoria Richards.
Kids enjoyed the coffee-themed obstacle course where they acted the part of a K-Cup making coffee.
