Winterset Rotary Club Hosts 6th Annual Pump & Run

Winterset, Iowa

August 6th

The Winterset Rotary Club hosted it’s 6th Annual Pump & Run Contest Saturday, August 6th at the Memorial Park in Winterset. Fifty-five contestants competed in an event where for every bench press they complete they receive a 15 second credit on their 5K or 1 Mile time. The fastest adjusted time is the strongest and the fastest. The event is held annually and provides two scholarships for Winterset seniors.


This year event resulted in records set at both ends of the age spans. Matt Cahalan, Winterset, 14 & under, pressed 90 lbs. 15 times then ran a 18:35 5K for an adjusted time of 13:05, the best recorded for the day, and a new record for the 14 & under age group. Baron Davis, Hamilton, High School, ran the fastest 5K of the day in 17:50.
Laurie Baker, Waukee, 30-34, broke her own age group record by recording 28 presses at 85 lbs, which is 3 more than the 80 lbs she pressed in 2004. Baker then ran her 5K in 21:13, 10 seconds faster than 2004, giving her the best adjusted time of the day and an new age group and overall record of 14:13. The fastest women’s 5K was recorded by Christina Cunningham, 35-39, in 20:08.
In the One-Mile Pump & Run 65-year-old Jack Wortman, North Liberty, set a new record for negative times. Wortman lifted 135 lbs. 35 times then ran a 7:24 mile giving him his age group and overall One Mile record of -1:21.
