Results from the Truskey Memorial run

Saturday morning was the kind of dark, rainy, precursor-of-fall mornings that could make you want to curl up on the couch in some comfy sweats.

That is, unless you were one of the Truskey Run loyals. If that were the case, it was instead one of those dark, rainy, precursor-of-fall mornings when you could curl up on the couch in some comfy sweats, after giving your all during a demanding run on an unforgiving course.When all the runners and walkers had completed the five or ten kilometer courses, laid on on a mix of woods paths and roads at Tuscarora State Park, Barnesville, they gathered by a pavillion to receive awards. It also gave Wayne and Pat Truskey, West Penn Township, a chance to express their gratitude."Thank you all for coming," Wayne Truskey said. "We thank everybody that competed, and all the volunteers that have helped us today."The first Truskey run was held in August 1991. Proceeds have been used to establish a scholarship fund in honor of the Truskey's sons, Chris and Kevin. Both passed away as the result of separate vehicle crashes, in 1990 and 2002. So far, about $65,000 has been distributed to high school runners.Results for the annual Chris and Kevin Truskey Memorial Run:5KFirst male - Justin O'Brien, Orwigsburg, 16:45First female - Samantha Snukis, Saint Clair, 19:14Male, 13 and underVan Wirebach, Robesonia, 19:47Colton Albity, Blue Mountain junior high, 20:11Matt McCormick, Ashland, 20:47Cole Streisel, Mahanoy Area, 20:57Nick Berger, Weatherly, 21:31Female, 13 and underOlivia Corey, Minersville, 21:54Brinn DeAngelo, North Schuylkill, 22:06Sarah Maue, Tamaqua, 23:19Alexia Maccarone, Palo Alto, 24:43Caitlyn Albity, Blue Mountain, 25:30Male, 14-18Jonathan Condley, Jim Thorpe, 16:54Matthew Werner, Conrad Weiser, 17:36Sam Ramsay, Conrad Weiser, 17:36Jake Saxon, Jim Thorpe, 17:50Michael Blacketter, Lehighton, 17:56Female, 14-18Shannon Henniger, Blue Mountain, 21:14Kailee Carroll, Tamaqua, 21:32Jessica Yeneskie, North Schuylkill, 21:40Jennifer Beers, Lehighton, 21:42Cera Gaston, Lehighton, 21:42Male, 19-24Cody Ulrich, Brockton, 41:25Female, 19-24Megan Hahner, Pottsville, 26:33Jeanette Ulrich, Brockton, 42:01Male, 25-29Jake Marashak, Schnecksville, 23:51Eric Mace, Bloomfield, 28:25Female, 25-29Erica Pagotta, Lehighton, 23:20Fawn Gulder, Nesquehoning, 34:21Male, 30-34John Martino, Jim Thorpe, 18:12Jesse Murphy, Hummelstown, 21:19Chris Lech, Tamaqua, 42:07Female, 30-34Maragaret Klimek, Arlington, VA, 21:04Jennifer Boberg Perry, Clark Summit, 22:20Male, 35-39Mike Carriglitto, Stowe, 17:03Randy McCormick, Ashland, 20:02Brad Klimek, Arlington, VA, 21:48Female, 35-39Jennifer Traly, Lehighton, 25:34Jillian Whetstone, Harrisburg, 27:27Male, 40-44Johnathan Kiddish, Weatherly, 18:29Dan Heany, Nesquehoning, 20:49Brian Senglar, Barnesville, 22:25Female, 40-44Carla Exner, Lehighton, 26:27Male, 45-49Bill Hahner, Pottsville, 27:18Lewis Ekner, Lehighton, 32:05Jose Fernandez, Tamaqua, 33:45Female, 45-49Karen Ziegenfus, Lehighton, 24:55Kathleen Snukis, Saint Clair, 25:05Male, 50-54Craig Lowthert, Port Carbon, 22:16Mike Liptock, Pottsville, 22:23Dave Stoudt, Orwigsburg, 23:37Female, 50-54Patricia Domyan, Wescosville, 27:50Maureen Duffy-Guy, Tamaqua, 32:39Male, 55-59David Holmes, Mahanoy Area, 27:27Mark Domyan, Wescosville, 30:34Female, 55-59Sandra Sander, Barnesville, 28:02Ginny Murray, Saint Clair, 33:43Male, 60-69James Manzick, Pottsville, 23:36Gary Dobias, Palmerton, 27:12Dan DeCindio, Tuscarora, 29:04Female, 60-69Linda DeCindio, Tuscarora, 43:41Male, 70+Dale Kline, Tamaqua, 29:44Richard Graber, Bethlehem, 37:30Female, 70+Catherine Shade, Reading, 42:0810K ResultsFirst Male, OverallGary Clemson, Tamaqua, 44:03First Female, OverallJeanna Hahn, Schuylkill Haven, 52:47Female,25-29Ashley Stanek, Tamaqua, 55:20Amanda Scheitrum, Bethlehem, 1:02:07Male, 30-34Dave Frederickson, Northhampton, 57:24Female, 30-34Christine Maccarone, Palo Alto, 54:05Kristin Bouchholz, Mountaintop, 54:48Male, 35-39Brian Lawfer, Barnesville, 52:49John Guth, Bangor, 1:05:25Female, 35-39Yvonne Gavalis, Pottsville, 1:02:31Male, 40-44Jason Setlock, Middleport, 48:24Mike Yacone, Kunkletown, 50:56Colin Boyer, Fleetwood, 51:44Male, 45-49Matt Lucyk, Barnesville, 59:28Female, 45-49Lora Krum, Lehighton, 56:43Male, 50-54Russell Lang, Pottsville, 57:00Todd Truskey, Jim Thorpe, 1:08.11Dan Snopek, Orwigsburg, 1:09.26Female 50-54Donna Ornosky, Birdsboro, 58:34Male, 55-59Dave McSherry, Camp Hill, 57:31Male 60-69John Heycock, York Haven, 59:22Dale Martin, Tamaqua, 1:07.56WalkersMaleJames Hopper, 38:03Luis Fernandez, 1:02.21FemaleGrace KinderMelissa Frederickson, 48:35Jane Grier Habel, 49:44
