Run for the Ribbon, Sunday, October 5, 2003

Matt Curran and Layce Alves were the top men's and women's finishers at the second annual Run for the Ribbon.

Curran took the front early and had a commanding lead by the first "mile" on his way to a 29:14 finish, more than two minutes ahead of the second-place finisher. Rounding out the top five were Lyman Perry (31:59), Ed Herman (32:18), Steve Whittey (32:33), and Joe Maloney (32:45).

On the woman's side, Layce Alves also dominated, placing nearly 5 minutes ahead of her closest female competitor. Alves was 7th overall with a 34:19 finish, exactly two minutes faster than her time on the same course in May.

Pete Watson, sporting a shiny new necklace in place of his signature purple beads, finished 16th in 41:26. Want to know what the horn is? You'll have to ask him yourself.
