DCRRC Bon Air 5K
Arlington, VA
Thursday, July 29, 1999
Conducted by the DC Road Runners Club
It was hot, and it was humid. But the weather did not deter 59 hearty souls from
showing up to run the Bon Air Park 5K race in Arlington, VA on Thursday, July
29th. The race also served as the 7th of the 8 races making up the 1999 Bunion Derby
series. The race began and finished in Bon Air Park, in the shadow of a lovingly
maintained rose garden; and the course took the runners out and back over gently
undulating bike trails. Among the men, the indefatigable Ted Poulos, 37, captured
first place in a time of 16:51, followed by Craig Chasse, 27, in 17:00 and Doug
Kuderna, 38, in 17:21; the first male masters finisher was Robert Rodriguez, 43, who
completed the course in 18:39. Of the 12 women who finished the race, the ever-
cheerful Susan Rizzieri, 32, took first place in a time of 19:56, followed by Eliza
Savage, 34, in 21:04 and Emily Weeks, 20, in 21:42; the ever-present Roseann
Neatrour, 42, was first among the female masters runners in a time of 24:59. Many
thanks to the following volunteers who helped Gary Guenther direct the race: John,
David, and Abigail Churchman, Rebecca Guenther, Gary Sidor, Anne Gwynn and her
friend Terri, Richard Diefenbeck, and Joe (we didn't get your last name.)
