Herndon Parks and Recreation held the 5th Annual Ice Breaker Family Fun Run 5K on Sunday, March 11. The event was for runners ages four and up. The course took the runners around the Herndon Parkway and through parts of the scenic Sugarland Run Trail.
The race started and ended at the campus of event co-sponsor, Northwest Federal Credit Union, 200 Spring Street. “This partnership provides a great way for us to give back to the community and support not only the town where our headquarters is located but also encourage wellness for residents," said Harmonie Taddeo, VP Marketing and Communications, NWFCU.
One hundred thirty-eight participants took part in the run as they put winter behind them and headed out for spring. Martin Calhoun, age 56, finished first with a time of 19/21.7 at a pace off 6:13/M. Christina Torpey, 26, was the first female to come in with a time of 19:51.2 at a pace of 6:23/M.
