The Peninsula road racing season kicked off with the Menchville Winter Chill 5K, held last Saturday at Menchville High. The Winter Chill 5K is the first race in the eleven-race 2022 PTC Grand Prix race series.
Ninety-four runners entered the event with 76 completing the 5K.The 10th Annual Menchville Winter Chill 5K was finally held after a cancellation in 2021 due to Covid and then two postponements this year due to adverse winter weather the two previous weekends. The third time turned out to be the charm on a sunny, but cold and breezy morning with a temperature of 36 at the race start and a wind chill of 28.
The small but fast field yielded three new age group records for the 10th year of this event:
Race winner Steven Kast, 57 of Yorktown VA set a new age group record for Men 55-59 with a time of 17:50 beating the time 18:30 set by Craig Hymes in 2019.
For Men 75-79, Michael Daly, 75 of Williamsburg VA set a new age group record with a time of 28:16, eclipsing the mark of 30:50 set by William Coker Jr in 2016.
For Women 9 and Under, Imogen Leone, 7 of Newport News VA set a new age group record with a time of 31:55 breaking the previous record of 39:34 set by Kaitlyn Scicchitano in 2020.
Finish line and results services were provided by the Peninsula Track Club. A copy of the results, links to race pictures and listings for future races can be found on the PTC website: www.peninsulatrackclub.com.
