Caumsett Races Draw Hundreds

Nearly 400 runners competed in the chill Sunday in races at Caumsett State Park.

A 50k ultramarathon drew runners from around the country, as well as several local racers, while others ran in the 25k race.

Franklin Diaz of Farmingdale and Stefanie Braun of Dix Hills were the winners of the 25k run sponsored by the Greater Long Island Running Club

Joseph Gray, 29, of Renton, Wash., won the 50k race that was the USA track and field national championship run while Shanna Ailes of Kent, Ohio was the top female finisher in that race.

Gray finished only 14 seconds short of the race record of 15:05. Aaron Heath won the 50k non-competitive race.
