RIDGWAY, PA--The R.I.O.T. (Run, Inspire, Overcome, Teach) 5K Run & Walk, sponsored by the Ridgway School District Faculty and Staff, was held Saturday, September 21, 2019, on the Ridgway School District Cross Country course.

The race is held in memory of Ridgway School District Nurse Michelle Spence.  Proceeds from the event benefit the Michelle Spence Memorial Scholarship.

Partly sunny skies and temperatures in the low fifties brought out 30 runners and 12 walkers. 

The race was highlighted by the setting of three new course records. 

Calvin Doolittle’s first place time of 19:05 is a new course record for the run.  The previous record was 22:38 set by Steve Dellaquila in 2017. 

Adria Magnusson set a new female course record in the run with a time of 23:50.  The previous record was 29:57 set by Lindsey Straub in 2017.

In the walk, a new female course record was set by Kim Schlimm with a time of 41:35.  The previous record was 47:26 set by Sue Butterfuss in 2017.
