Updated: Katonah 5K Race Commemorates 9/11

Hundreds of local runners convened at the starting line located in Katonah Memorial Park on Saturday for the Annual Katonah 5K Race.

The race also served as a special commemoration to the 10th Anniversary of 9/11, including the revealing of a beautiful spruce tree and plaque in the park. Although the race was cancelled last year, the Katonah Memorial Parks Association along with the 5K Co-Chairs worked on rerouting the race and focused it in the park this year rather than through the town. 

Ben Barton, a sophomore at Fox Lane High School, placed first in the overall standings clocking in at 19 minutes and 5 seconds.

Check out the video to see some post-race reactions and hear from local runners reflect on the 10th Anniversary of 9/11.
