BEDFORD – McIntyre Brothers presented this year’s Limestone Capital Half Marathon, a 5K, and 1-mile walk to nearly 400 participants and many onlookers of all ages, including 12 members with Ainsley’s Angels.
Andrew Bayer of Bloomington had the fastest time in the men’s bracket for the Half Marathon, with a time of 1:07:22.28, while Asia Seidt of Peewee Valley, KY finished first in the women’s bracket with a time of 1:24:35.50.
This year’s top finisher in the 5K was Bedford resident Brycen Long, finishing the race with a time of 20:57.25.
“I haven’t run a 5K in a while, and my grandparents helped me register for the race. I just felt like I needed to start running again, and so I did,” said Long.
The race continues to grow each year, including individuals and families, such as the Parsons family from Bedford, trying to get out to the race and have a great time together.
“It’s nice to get out and come to the event and build on being more active with the kids,” said Michael Parsons. “We are ready to go.”
