Emma Spaeth (2010) and Ava Snyder (2009).

With almost 400 runners, walkers and volunteers in attendance, weather in the upper 80's, the 5th Annual Team Teagan 5K Benefit Run/Walk went off without a hitch. 2011 Honored Hero, Hannah Hughes, surrounded by her family was able to cheer on participants from her perch on the back of dad's pick up truck, as Marc Shinebarger, 2011 Honored Hero Kristen Shinebager's dad and Eric, her brother, sprinted across the 5K mark to cheering friends, spectators and participating families. The festive atmosphere at the event could not have been any greater as friends and competitors from several past years cheered, hugged and encouraged each other throughout the morning activities. This year 5 of the 7 honored heroes were in attendance, (photo inset), with only Mikayla Nearh (2008) and Kristen Shinebarger (2011) unable to attend.

Saratoga's Shawn Donegren (28), winner in 2009, again took the overall win with a time of 17:05, followed closely by Jeff Goupil (23) 17:21, and Aidan Tooker (13) 18:36, who came in 3rd overall to take the win in the youth division. Rik Jordan (40) from Glens Falls rounded out the Mens division with a 3rd place. Elizabeth Jones (21) of Ballston Lake crossed the finish line at 20:31 to take the win for the Women's division, with Kelsey Leder (23), and Kelsey Ryan (19) taking 2nd and 3rd as they did in 2010. Jashua Moeckle (13) 21:57, from Scotia and Michael Poirier (10) 22:24, finished strong with 2nd and 3rd place in the youth division.

As in past years, parents cheered their kids on as they competed in "Teagan's Trot", a 50-yard sprint race for Kids 6-10 and little tikes under 5. Jake Welcome, Bradley Sharp and Kimberly Martin placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the 6-10 Group, with Noah Datka, Bryn Huber and Casey Clark placing 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the 5 and under group. Big smiles all around as they received their medals and prize bags.
