Triangle runners top field of 3,850 in City of Oaks Marathon and Half-Marathon
Marathoners Heather Davis and John Crews ran to victories over a challenging, hilly course and bested a field of 1,000 marathoners in the second annual Sony Ericsson City of Oaks Marathon and Rex Healthcare Half Marathon on a sunny Nov. 2 morning in Raleigh.
Sunshine eased the morning chill as 3,850 entrants — including 3,198 who finished their races — from around the Triangle and across the nation crossed the starting line on N.C. State University’s Centennial Campus at 7 a.m. for the event that raised money for area and national charities and also paid prize money to the top finishers.
