Rescue Run 5K and 10K, Gallery 3

Despite a cool 20 degrees and some icy conditions, the 35th annual Rescue Run 5K/10K drew a record 866 runners who raced into the new year Tuesday in Palmer Park.
Joshua Simkins, 20, of Colorado Springs, captured first place in the 5K race, finishing in 17 minutes, 25 seconds - just four seconds ahead of second place finisher, Simon Gutierrez.
“Last year I lost by less than half of a second - so I wanted to win, but I was hoping the time would be faster.” said Simkins.
A distance runner at Western State College (he also ran at The Classical Academy in Colorado Springs) said the race was a tune-up for his indoor season to come.
Amanda Ewing, Scott Spillman and Connilee Walter also earned victories. Read the rest of the story here ... http://bit.ly/WjvQ5X.
