Over 400 Run in Snowy Conditions on Sunday

Over 400 runners participated in races in Scarsdale organized by the Recreation Department on Sunday March 25. The races took place a week earlier than last year, and instead of spring weather, runners actually ran in the snow.

74 children participated in the fun run, 118 people ran the 15K and 202 ran the four mile race. The overall winner of the 15K race was Peter Brady with a time of 53:57 and the overall winner of the 4 mile race was Andrew Levy with a time of 23:13. The overall female winner of the 15K race was Rachel Levine Rilander with a time of 1:03:52 and the first female runner in the 4 mile race was Caroline Shannon with a time of 26:08.

The Recreation Department worked with the Scarsdale Police Department to close off roads and reroute traffic, with the Public Works Department to repair potholes to prevent injuries and SVAC to care for any who were injured.

We took a few photos of the runners warming up after they completed the course in the high school cafeteria.
