Add another Independence 10k winner’s trophy to Winston Missigher’s collection. Yesterday, the Running Brave Athletic Club standout posted a wire-to-wire victory to repeat as champion of the Burgette Williams-Forde and friends organized fixture.
Missigher clocked 34 minutes and 32 seconds in perfect conditions for racing. Cleveland Thomas, one of the pre-race favorites who ran in about 150m behind, completed the trek in 34 minutes and 57 seconds. Nathaniel Giddings (35m: 22s) and Jonathan Fagundes (35m: 42s) filled out the top five positions.
