Congratulations to Hicksville athletes Mary-Jo DePaoli and Kevin Kremler who both took home awards from the the Oyster Bay Town Supervisor’s 5 Kilometer Run.
DePaoli crossed the finish line in 22 minutes, 47 seconds, to earn second place honors in the women’s 35-39 age group, and Kremler earned the 5th place award in the 60-64 age group with a finishing time of 23:25.
The 5 Kilometer Oyster Bay course is a classic one through the heart of Oyster Bay hamlet, starting on South Street by the Firehouse, with a long uphill on Berry Hill Road, a steep downhill on Sandy Hill Road, and a stretch down East Main Street to the last turn into the Townsend Square parking field to the finish line.
