Newton North sophomore Carolyn Ranti won the girls 14-and-under 1.1 mile race in a time of 6:30, 16 seconds ahead of second place. Last year Carolyn ran 16:44 to finish 4th. Next year she'll have to run the 5K! Also running in the girls race were NNHS freshmen Susannah Gleason (7:11) and Jaya Tribathi (7:36).

Jess Barton ran well race in the women's championship 5K, placing 38th in what I believe is a Franklin Park PR for her of 18:43. That's also a minute faster than last year!
In the men's championship 8K, North alum Tom Davis finished 45th overall in 25:35.

Is Carolyn a year younger than the rest of her grade? She'll be turning 17 as a senior?
Also at Mayor's Cup Caroline Occean led the GBTC women to a JV 5K victory . . . and yours truly watched with his lovely torn right lateral meniscus. John Blouin came through in 1:21 but succumbed to the elements in 2:51 at the Chicago Marathon.
