Palace Saloon 2017 Upate

David Yon

The 2017 Palace Saloon 5K started on time and ran smoothly under new race director Jon Nash. The final stats show 1044 finishers including top finisher Stanley Linton in a time of 15:16 (fastest time since 1994) and Ani Veltcheva, from Gainesville, again putting on a show winning in 17:58 for her second Palace 5K win in a row. It is an amazing sight watching all of those runners crest the hill on Jackson Bluff Road. Congrats, Jon. And Mike, we still miss you!

We are missing some results, but here are the ten fastest Palace Saloon 5K times we have found so far.  If anyone has information to improve this list, please let me know at david@radeylaw.com.
