February 27, 2012

Gideon Kigotho and Rose-Anna Hoey were crowned the 2012 ValidusRe 5K Running of the Bulls Male and Female Champions yesterday morning [Feb.26].

Validus Reinsurance hosted the inaugural “Running of the Bulls” 5K Run/Walk in partnership with the Mid Atlantic Athletic Club [MAAC] in support of the Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Bermuda.

“We are delighted to be supporting the Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Bermuda for this important fundraiser and hope to make this an annual event,” said Conan M. Ward, Validus Re’s CEO prior to the race.

In a race that saw Bermuda’s top Male and Female Road Runners give the Field a head start, the Female Bulls — which included top runners Ashley Estwanik, Jennifer Alen, Victoria Fiddick, Kristin Robinson and Joanna Shillington — departed five minutes after the field, while the Male Bulls — Chris Estwanik, Chase Smith, Sean Trott, Stephen Allen and Jay Donawa — left three minutes later.

Kigotho was clocked across the line in 17:23, while Bermuda Winter Olympian Tucker Murphy finished second clocking 17:39 and Jamie Fraser finished third with a time of 17:55.

Hoey was the 10th runner overall to cross the line clocking 19:29, while Laura Wright was the second female finisher clocking a time of 20:18 finishing 18th overall and Hilda Stoney finished 26th overall, she was the third female finisher clocking 20:59.
