The 11th Annual Gasping Gobbler was on Saturday, November 19th and 60 runners and walkers participated in this fun 5k event sponsored by the Lovell Recreation Department. Held at the Athletic Field, the runners and walkers circle the complex three times until they reach the finish line. All participants received a ‘one-of-a-kind’ Gasping Gobbler headband. After the event, all participants and volunteers gathered at the VFW Hall where awards were given, raffle prizes were drawn and great food and baked goods were served!
It wouldn’t be a Gasping Gobbler without Turkeys! Winners were: Alfie Walker from Fryeburg was the top male and overall finisher with a time of 18:16. Kaitlyn Direnzo of Buxton was the first female finisher with a time of 24:05. Jonathan Crowe of Lovell was the top walker with a time of 44:40. And Nancy Kluck from Bridgton won the fourth turkey for finishing in the ‘Middle of the Pack’. Click here for complete results.
Another fun and successful Gasping Gobbler!
