Loop the Lakes draws a crowd

Gordon Hunt comes in first in Male 30 to 39 category; Jenny Brymer comes in first among Female 30 to 39 crowd

Lisa Smart was the top female racer and third overall in 1:17:14, followed by Jenny Brymer in 1:21:16 and Bergitta Marthinsen in 1:21:33.

Adventure race teammates Dave Vitakangas and Cathy Jensen ran together, placing eighth overall in a tie with a time of 1:24:02.
