A local Super Bowl Sunday tradition: the annual Mr. Ed’s 5K race at Middleport
Photos by Cheryl Wertman – The weatherman cooperated with the temperature around 30 and very light snow as some 375 runners from all around Western New York took part in the 28th annual Mr. Ed’s 5K Superbowl Sunday race this morning. Jacob Osswald from Buffalo was the overall winner while Kimberly Mills of Bason was the first female finisher. Here a large group of the runners heads up Mill Street just before the turn onto Carmen Road.
