The race was won by Zach Rivers of Victor, NY, in a time of 15:54. Christa Meyer of Fairport won the women’s race in a time of 17:41.
The race, which boasted over 850 finishers, was put together to benefit Coneseus local Tobi O’Duffy.
O’Duffy, who has a loving husband, two daughters and a son, suffers from brain cancer. The race helps to offset medical costs for the family, and allows for a donation. The donation helps to fund brain cancer research.
The race now serves a dual purpose, after a local police officer, Daryl Pierson was shot Wednesday, September 3 2014. For every person registered, 1 dollar was donated to Amy Pierson, Daryl’s wife. She and her 2 children are residents of East Rochester.
