The DDC 15K Grows - 348 Finishers
by Dave McCorquodale
For the first time since the early 1990s, the 29th running of the Delaware Distance Classic 15K exceeded 300
finishers. All together the race had 377 registrants, 359 starters and 348 finishers. Charity Proceeds from
the 2011 Delaware Distance Classic will go to Mike Clark Legacy Foundation. Managed by the Delaware Community
Foundation, MCLF raises funds for the Clarence Fraim Boys & Girls Club of Delaware.
This years winners were: Men - Pat Hayburn, 1st, 49:20; club member Dan Suher, 2nd, 51:25; Justin Winter, 3rd,
51:52; and Bob Schwelm, 1st Master, 54:17. Women were: Doreen McCoubrie, 1st, 56:49; Kimberly Hickey, 2nd, 59:07;
Alison Pilkington, 3rd, 59:43; and Linda Hawke, 1st Master, 59:59. It should be noted that Doreen McCoubrie, 49,
is the overall female winner and therefore cannot win the Master's prize.
Two people set age group state records in newly created age groups: JoAnn Szczepkowski, 65. set the F 65-69 record
with a1:16:58 and club member Don Monagle, 81, set the M80-84 age group record with 2:40:59. Someone started a
nasty rumor that Don intentionally took a wrong turn to pad his time, so that he'll be able to break his own
record in the future, but John Schultz may cancel his New York vacation next year just to challenge him. ;-)
This year saw a big increase in sponsorship for the event, especially from Wilkinson Roofing and New Balance Delaware.
Charity Proceeds from the 2011 Delaware Distance Classic will go to Mike Clark Legacy Foundation. Managed by the
