Runners braved the looming rain last night to take on the fourth race of the Autumn Evening XC Series. This week’s race was run on our Championship Cross Country course, and saw fast times from all participants! Adrian Owens of Team Sterling defended his individual crown from last week, covering the challenging course in 22:19. Owens was followed by Josef Kurtz of Team One Look Farm Racers in 22:56 and teammate Corey Bink in 24:09. Eloise Girard took fourth and the win in a tight female race with a time of 24:22, edging out Antonia Cristofaro, Sarah Keener, and Hannah Dreissigacker - all hot on her heels!

In the team race, Team Sterling defended their title from last week’s run, followed closely by the fierce women of Team Singletrack Shredders. Team Feed the Dream rounded out the podium, and the impressive Kurtz family led Team One Look Farm Racers to a strong fourth place finish.
