BALLWIN, MO. – A brief shower just three hours before the race left course conditions a little on the sloppy side at times during the final race of the 2015 Spring Trail Run Series Presented by Columbia Sportswear. That didn’t stop Kwin Keuter and Claire Beckmeyer from repeating as Open division race champions again.

Keuter, 27, the men’s Open winner for the race, completed the 4.1 mile course in 27:07.7, nearly a minute and a half ahead of second place-finisher Caleb Brackett, 26 (28:31.4). They were followed to the line by Jack Wilkinson, 32, in 29:15.7. In the Master’s division, Darryl Holman (54) took home his first win of the series this year after finishing second in two of the first three races this month. Eric Buckley (52) finished in second place with Steven Worley (54) grabbing his third third-place finish of the series.

On the women’s side, Beckmeyer (31) captured her fourth straight win of the series in a time of 32:53.2, beating Katie O’Brien (25) to the line by by less than 20 seconds (33:09.0). O’Brien finished in second place in all three races she participated in this year. In third place was Aimee DeGuire, breaking into the top-3 for the first time this series. She finished in a time of 34:49.5. In the women’s Masters’, Laura Williams (54) won her third straight race in a time of 43:23.9. Mary Roley (50 ) grabbed her first top three finish of the series with Sharla Geear (50) taking her third third-place finish of the series.
