Another great Spring Fling 5k is in the books. Weather was great and there were some fast times. Daniel Kirwa of Searcy was the overall winner with a time of 15:25.  In case you're wondering that's a 4:58 mile!  Wow! Brent Corbitt of Little Rock was second with a 16:20 and Mark Ferguson of Little Rock was third with a time of 16:29.  

Former Cruiser Tia Stone of Searcy won the women's race with a time of 18:41. Second place female was Kaitlin Bounds of Russellville with a time of 19:05 and third went to Kem Thomas of Searcy with a time of 19:30.  

We had 400 runners/walkers exactly cross the finish line this year.  Being an Arkansas Grand Prix Championship race helped add to the numbers with awards given to age groups 5 deep. Cabot Cruisers again brought lots of homemade food for the post race party. 

Race results can be found online at Macs Race Timing.  

Special thanks to the Cabot School District for all their help and the use of the facility. And a big thanks to Cabot Police and Cabot Fire for escort and traffic control.

And how could you run a race without volunteers? We have some of the best volunteers there are and their teamwork shows each year making the Spring Fling 5k one of the premiere 5k events in Arkansas.  Without volunteers there would be no race!  Thank you!!
