Last week, the 12^th annual Fellowship of Christian Athletes “Run for the Son” race took place, with a total of 260 total runners and walkers participating.

Pierre McGraw and Giselle Jase were the first place finishers of the male and female 5K race respectively, McGraw finishing in 19:14 and Jase in 26:15.

Chris Millet and Karleigh Landry were winners of the one-mile race, Millet topping males with a time of 5:21 and Landry taking first among females with a mark of 7:28.
