Space Walk Of Fame 2 Mile and 8K The Space Walk of Fame 8K and 2 mile run was a huge success! 219 runners were treated to a wonderful morning of running for the finale of the Space Coast Runner of the Year and Titusville Racing Series events. Race time weather was calm and sunny, with temps approaching 69 degrees. Race director Marty Winkel beautifully orchestrated the race on the 8k double loop course that wound its way through the nicely shaded, historical streets of Titusville, eventually culminating in an exciting finish at Space View Park.
SWOF start (thanks to Cedric Ching for picture) A kid’s ¼, ½ and 1 mile ribbon run was offered for children 10 years and younger. All finishers received ribbons. By the looks of these speedy youngsters, the health of Space Coast Runners will be secure for many years to come. Soon after the races, the awards ceremony was held just off the water at the stunning Space View Park. Numerous raffled goodies were in the offering, along with the standard overall and age group awards. Mike Wasson and Jessica Crate took the overall wins. Jessica ran an impressive time of 29 minutes, placing her third overall! Art Anderson and Robin Hernandez managed to edge out the competition and grab the Master’s Award. And finally many thanks to the volunteers for helping with the 30th Space Walk of Fame 8K! Complete results are available at the [Results Page] And check out the picture taken by Cedric.

The Dino Dash 3K helped kick off Brevard Zoo's opening of Planet Dinosaur, an interactive exhibit featuring thirteen robotic and life size dinosaurs that runs through May 11th.
Dino Dash start (thanks to Barry Jones for picture) The 1.8 mile course took participants behind the scenes, through the zoo and Dino Trail.

Two athletes from Holy Trinity's Episcopal Academy took the first place wins. Kyle Cooke crossed the line in 9:15 and Kayla Hale in 10:10. Mike Wasson and Cathy Friedel managed to secure the Master's title. The zoo's Executive Director, Keith Winsten, also known as the Bandit, managed a time of 15:36. Not bad for someone who considers himself a jogger. Congratulations to everyone who finished the race! A big thank you to the volunteers, Running Zone staff, Brevard Zoo staff and animals, and participants for making the 2nd annual 3K at the zoo a huge success. Mark your calendars for March 7th, 2009 - the 3rd annual 3K run at the zoo!
