Eighty runners took off from the starting line Saturday morning for the 2011 Chilton County Peach Run, held at Cornerstone Fitness and Wellness.

Nineteen-year-old Jacob DuBois of Cabot, Ark. was first to cross the finish line, winning the men’s 5K with a time of 19:27.3.

DuBois was visiting his grandparents, Jerry and Gloria Kleinsasser of Prattville, who came to see him run Saturday.

“This running has really done him good,” said Gloria Kleinsasser, adding that her grandson has rheumatoid arthritis.

“I hope I can use this motivation to try and get into a half marathon and compete later down the road,” DuBois said.

A local claimed the women’s 5K title, Ruth Truss of Clanton, clocking in at 28:24.1.

Truss, 51, said she recently started running after organizing a 5K run at the University of Montevallo, where she teaches history.

The fastest man in the 10K was Todd Grant, 41, a Rhode Island native currently stationed at Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery. His chip time in the Peach Run was 42:58.0.

Grant, like DuBois, said he found out about the event online. The veteran runner is training for an Ironman competition.

Grant offered some advice for would-be runners:

“Start walking, and then slowly build up your running. You have to enjoy it,” he said.

Haley Guillebeau of Birmingham, a student at the University of Montevallo, won the women’s 10K event with a time of 48:59.5. She ran with her friend, David Sadberry.

“I did track and cross country in school, and I started back about a month ago,” said the 20-year-old Guillebeau.

The top four winners each received $100, and remaining winners received a basket of Chilton County peaches.
