Posted

PERU - Facing some unseasonably cold, windy conditions, Dan Palmer, 42, of Roscoe, won the Illinois Valley Community Hospital Fall Fitness 5K race for the second year in a row. Roscoe crossed the finish line in a time of 17 minutes and 56 seconds on Oct. 12. The first female finisher, Candis Kenny, 40, of Peru ran the course with a time of 22 minutes and 46 seconds.

The run through the streets of Peru was organized by the IVCH Center for Physical Rehabilitation and Aquatics as a fundraiser for the IVCH Foundation. Kenny and another race entrant, Jheri Emmerling of Spring Valley, both ran in and completed the Bank of America Chicago Marathon the next day.
