"It's a beautiful race, beautiful day," said Clark, who led a field of 41 finishers.

Coming in second was Avon's Steve Hunt, 48, who came across the finish line in 23:50. The course takes runners past Glander Fields where youth baseball opening day festivities were taking place. Hunt, when he ran past the fields, paused when he heard the national anthem before resuming the race.

"I wasn't going to catch (Clark) anyway. But even if I could catch him I would have stopped. There are better things than winning - like having the right to be here," Hunt said.
