Recent North Bend High School graduate Steven Garboden bested the field in the annual Mayor’s Firecracker Run at Mingus Park on Friday.
Garboden finished the 4,000-meter course, which included three laps around the pond in the park and a loop through some of the upper trails, in 14 minutes and 7 seconds.
Former Marshfield and current Oregon Institute of Technology runner Shawn Miller was second, crossing the line in 15:10. He was followed by Coos Bay eighth-grader Connor Devereux, who was timed in 16:53.
Jay Flora was the top masters runner, finishing seventh overall, in 17:32.
Jessianne Heley, who graduated from North Bend High School this spring, edged classmate Erika Schultz and Tiffany Crutchfield as the top female finisher.
Heley was timed in 18:53, followed by Schultz in 18:57 and Crutchfield in 18:59.
Tracy Heley was the top female master, finishing in 19:07.
In the 1-mile kids run, 10-year-old Ian Bream was the top finisher, in 5:20.
Bream was followed by a trio of girls — 12-year-olds Lindsey Devereux (5:21) and Shaylen Crook (5:35) and 9-year-old Ayssa Monohon (5:52).
The second boy to cross the finish line was 7-year-old Nathan Monohon in 6:33. Carter Liu, who is 9, was next, in 6:43.
