the First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park near the community of Ulm. A total of four race distances including a
half- marathon, a 6.2 mile race, a 2 mile event and the Piskin Gauntlet
(approximately 3 miles) were offered. The University of Great Falls Track and
Cross Country teams hosted the event.
Anthony Davalos, Great Falls,
was the winner of the men’s division of the half marathon. He completed the event in a speedy 1:47.19
for the 13.1 mile distance. The top
female finisher was Josephine Daggett of Billings. She finished the longest distance in a time of
1:58:57. A total of 23 individuals
participated in the half-marathon this year.
Christa Sprout, of Fort
Benton, was the first woman across the finish line in the 6.2 mile race. She finished the challenging course in 57 minutes
and 48 seconds. The top male finisher
was Gary Bjelland, of Great Falls. He
finished with a time of 46:38 leading thirty-three finishers.
In the 2 mile race Chase
Leveque led the male finishers (20:40), while Kaytlynn and Gen McClure, both
from Great Falls tied for the women’s title (31:39).
On the tough trail race
called the Piskin Gauntlet, a race approximately 3 miles in length, Steven
Johnson of Great Falls led all finishers in a quick 17:35. Catrina Clarke, also of Great Falls, was just
as impressive with a fast time of 22:24 to lead the women’s division.
“The weather was absolutely
fantastic”, commented race director Bill Brist.
“The runners did a nice job with very hilly courses. I was impressed with the hearty attitude of
all of the racers. They all handled the
challenging events very well. I’m happy
to have had the opportunity to be involved with helping to put on an event for
such an enthusiastic group of runners and walkers.”
The Buffalo Jump races have
been part of the Ulm landscape for the past seven years organized by the Cross
Country and Track and Field Teams from the University of Great Falls since its
beginning. “The courses are challenging,
but the scenery is fantastic. The races
offer an old school appeal to those looking for a chance to see what they can
do against the courses, distance and the race clock.” added Brist.
