EMC Sports – Runners welcomed spring with open arms on Saturday, participating in the sixth annual Spring Goat Run.

The run was a prediction race, which means the winner is the person whose actual time comes closest to his or her predicted time. The male winner of the event was Bruce Gray, finishing within three seconds of his predicted time, while the female winner was Tammy Shepherd, finishing within 28 seconds of her predicted time. The fastest runner to finish the course was Perth’s Tommy Sommerville in just 18:43, but he placed fourth overall for being within 16 seconds off his predicted time.

The run supported Lanark County Interval House, and raised $500.
