BIG CYPRESS — On July 3rd runners and walkers from the Seminole Tribe gathered to compete for the 2004 Fourth of July 5K Walk or Run marathon. The competition was held at the Mitchell Cypress Trail of Fitness and was open to all tribal citizens and tribal employees. Runners and walkers had to complete nine laps to equal three miles.
The runners were the first to compete just as the sun was rising. Jadrien Antuna and Marcus Briggs held a steady lead throughout the entire race. All the runners stuck it out and completed the race; the results are as follows:
Boys ages 4 to 12: 1. Catlen Tommie; 2. Trent McInturff.
Men ages 18 to 35: 1. Jadrien Antuna; 2. PJ Bluebird.
Men ages 36 to 49: 1. Eugene Roberts; 2. Allen McIntruff.
