LOVELL — The Ninth Annual Lovell Old Days 5K Run had a number of familiar faces running down Main Street, as well as at the awards ceremony.

Silas Eastman, Maine’s male Athlete of the Year, crossed the finish line first with a time of 16:33. In September, Silas will begin studying at Colby College in Waterville, where he will continue to participate in both cross-country running and Nordic skiing.

Terry Ballou, 45, of Staten Island, N.Y., who has been the top female winner five out of the past six years, again came in first place with a time of 19:18.  Even more impressive was that Terry finished eighth overall, more than two minutes ahead of the next female runner.

Both Eastman and Ballou received awards designed by Conway glassblower, Nathan Macomber.

On a very hot and humid morning, 129 runners ran the course that finishes at the Lovell Athletic Field. Every year, the race sees runners take on their first 5K. Congratulations to:

Carolynn Plowden, 45, of Stow, who has been training to run the course;

Alfie Walker, 12, of Fryeburg showed great form, finishing 20th overall with a time of 21:39;

The father-son duo of John Crowe, 87 years young from Sweden, finished seconds ahead of his son, Jonathon Crowe of Lovell.

Fryeburg Academy was well-represented with many students along with Track & Field Coach Kevin McDonald.

Race proceeds are evenly split between the Lovell Recreation Department and the Old Home Days Parade.

The event would not be possible without the generous support of sponsors: Norway Savings Bank, Midtown Marketing Services, Muddy Moose Restaurant, Bennett Transportation, Bliss & Associates, FairPoint Communications, Harvest Gold Gallery, Michael Friedman, Esq., Doyle Antiques, JB Storage, Mo’s Electric & Solar, Chet Rogers, Thurston Home Builders, Drew Corporation, Dr. N. Scott Ferguson, Rachel Kuvaja, North Conway Dental Associates, Lovell Village Store, Bob the Screenprinter and Kezar Realty.

Poland Spring and Rosie’s contributed to the post-race refreshments.

Saucony Shoes, The Frontside Grind, The Red Parka Pub, Lake Kezar Country Club, Kezar Lake Marina and the Pirate’s Cove Golf provided wonderful prizes for the random awards.

A very big special thank you goes to Dave Mason of Fryeburg, who at 96 years old continued his streak of starting all nine races.

Race Director Stan Tupaj also acknowledges the support of Oxford County Sheriff Wayne Gallant, as well as to Tommie McKenzie and the Lovell Volunteer Fire Department. And no event could be successful without the large number of volunteers and the support of the Town of Lovell.
