The Men's Record (22:49) was previously held by Charles Spedding since 1984. Other runners came close in the past few years, but Wykes finally crushed the record with his time of 22:38. The Women's Record (25:45), held for the last three years by Marie Davenport, fell in 2007 to Claudia Camargo, a native of Argentina, clocking a time of 25:30, finishing in 4th place overall in a field of 490 finishers. Prior to Davenport's record, Judi St.Hillaire held the record since 1982 with her time of 26:14. Wykes and Camargo each took home $300 for the win plus another $250 from the bonus purse of $500 for a new course record.
