Wayne Turkey Trot draws 72 participants

Seventy-two runners took part in the annual Wayne Turkey Trot road race held Saturday morning in downtown Wayne.

Extreme chilly temperatures greeted the participants but that did not stop Lincoln's Delbert Christensen and Waterbury's Jean Gill from setting course records.

Christensen won the men's two-mile run in a time of 11:12- breaking his own record while Gill was timed in 31:12 in the women's five-mile run for a new record.

Richelle Woockman of Wakefield was the overall winner of the women's two-mile run and Dave Dannebring of Laurel captured the men's five-mile race in 29:57.

The winners all received turkeys.
