43rd Annual Old Mill Run Race Results
Columbia, CA — Hundreds were in Columbia State Historic Park on Saturday morning for the Old Mill Run, which has been going strong since the late seventies.
Money from the event benefits the Tuolumne County Community Christmas Eve Dinner and the Wings Fund which helps local families with children needing medical care out of the county. The event kicked off with multiple kids’ runs held during the eight o’clock hour along Main Street in the state park, and the gun fired for the two-mile and 10-k events at 9 am.
For those looking for a leisurely pace, a fun walk traveled up to the old school house and back, while the two-mile and 10-k routes went along Parrotts Ferry Road and along several backroads near the Columbia Airport.
Numerous volunteers helped to put on the race and the Sonora Sunrise Rotary Club oversaw timing. 12-year-old Graham Hart was the top finisher in the two-mile run with a time of 15:55 and Steven Grolle was first overall in the 10-K with a time of 35:04.
Saturday marked the 43rd Old Mill Run. While it was started in 1978 there were a few years in which it was not held, a couple of the recent years were due to COVID.
