CARROT BAY, Tortola, VI- New comer Reuben J.A. Stoby chasing his first win in the CERES 10K Series was denied the top spot by a 'newer' newcomer in Guy Williamson who edged out Stoby by 2 seconds in a sprint finish in the third race of the CERES JUICES 10k race series held in Carrot Bay this morning, September 14, 2013.
There was no surprise with Katrina Crumpler crossing the finish line first for ladies in the hilly Carrot Bay leg of the race series.
Williamson, Stoby, Ravindra Sukhu and James Carr broke away early from the pack and held together until the return from Smugglers Cove when Stoby made his move that saw Sukhu and Carr falling off the pace.
Never troubled, however, was Williamson who refused to be detached and himself and Stoby ran together until some 300 metres to the finish line when Williamson burst into a sprint with Stoby in pursuit and together they stepped on the gas to the end with Williamson crossing the finish line first in 45 minutes, 22 seconds and Stoby in 45:24.
James Carr was third in 46:57 and Sukhu, who won the first two races in the series, fourth in 47:04. Adam DeMonte was 5th in 48:29.
Crumpler ran unchallenged in the ladies division to finish in 49:04 while Juliana Potgeiter followed in 53:46 and NiMade Oniasih third in 55:03. Fourth and Fifth respectively were Clare-Louise Whiley (55:36) and Kimberley Tait Lowe (56:52).
Gerald Rose won the race walk for men in 1:27:40 while Sophie Bennet achieved victory on the distaff side in 1:38:22.
Representative from Proudly African- the official distributor of Ceres Juices in the Virgin Islands, Shaliva Adams, was on hand to present the prizes to the respective winners and top finishers.
Runners and walkers started in front of Carrot Bay Festival Ground and headed to Smugglers Cove to return to Carrot Bay for the finish.
