PARKTON, MD - Despite torrential downpours the night before and a humid race start, Gabriel Rodriguez forged his way to a dominant win at the BRRC Bunker Hill Trail Race 11M, claiming the fastest 5.5M split en route to the 1:18:08 victory.
An aggressive start into singletrack turned into some technical running on slick and muddy conditions. However, by 1.5 miles Gabriel was clear of the field and pressing on deeper into Gunpowder Falls Park and soon encountered some nice bushwacking of the trails before crossing the Gunpowder River itself, in almost waist-high water.
His first loop split was slightly under 38-minutes and he managed a strong 40-minute second loop to secure the win.
