Tandem Runners Impress in Local 5K

Tandem runners had a strong showing at the Mint Springs Trail 5K on May 8. Senior Mason Love came in first overall out of a field of 200 people in various age groups. Sophomore Michael O'Neill came in third overall. Senior Sophie Farr finished second in her age group and set a big personal record on that course. According to coach Jason Farr, 'This is a tough course and these kids crushed it!' Additionally, Mason Love ran unattached (no school team competitions this year due to COVID) at the recent Ragged Mountain Cup and made it into the top 15. Congratulations to Tandem runners for making the very best of a challenging year. Good luck to Mason and Sophie, who will be running for George Mason University and Vassar College, respectively, next year!
