V.I.Pace Runners Releases St. Croix Metric Mile Results

Runners led by Malique Smith No. 199 St. Croix Track Club are in the annual St.Croix Metric Mile (Photo by Wallace Williams)A short while before sunset on Saturday a group of curious runners ranging from ages 7 to 57 showed up for the annual St. Croix Metric Mile road race in Upper Love, Frederiksted.

“The original idea for this race was to give runners the chance to recover from the V.I. Half-Marathon which used to be run annually on the Saturday following Thanksgiving — now that race is run in conjunction with the annual St. Croix Marathon on the second Sunday in December — so the Metric Mile is primarily run by track clubs with the youngsters these days” said Wallace Williams, founder of the event.
Malique Smith, running with the St. Croix Track Club, had his way in the race. After posting some impressive times in the V.I. Track and Field Federation Development Meet the day before, he continued to show his versatility by taking first place and leading the males in the road race with a time of 4:25; his teammate, Rodney Griffin, who arrived just as the race was to start and, therefore, not getting a proper warm-up, finished second in 4:41; Randall Nielsen finished third in 4:51; Shevron Phillip was fourth in 5:21; Mike Klein, V.I. Ultra Champion (St. Croix 50 Scenic 50-Mile Road Race) was fifth in 5:28.
V.I. Marathon Champion Bridget Klein worked her way through the field and took first place for females also finished fourth in the race overall with a time of 5:01; Mikaela Smith of St. Croix finished a strong second for the females, fifth overall and first for girls 13 and under with a time of 5:13; her 8-year-old sister Michelle finished third for the females and second for girls 13 and under with a time of 6:04 and just holding off Avia Joseph who took fourth in 6:05; Tyannah Lake was right on her heels for fifth place in 6:08.
