With only a few miles to run in the Pikes Peak Marathon, Hayley Benson passed Kim Dobson and encouraged her to run safely down the tricky switchbacks the locals call the "Ws." A few minutes later Benson, of Littleton, fell and ripped her right elbow open. But she picked herself up and dashed to a second-place finish in the 60th running of the historic mountain race. She finished in 4 hours, 45 minutes and 19 seconds, then spent some time in the medical tent before visiting the emergency room where she received 14 stitches. Hirut Guangul of New York, N.Y., took the win in 4:29:06. Dobson, who had won the Pikes Peak Ascent the day before, finished third in 4:46:59.
