 ASICS Greenville Track Club-ELITE's Kimberly Ruck ran 34:38 to place 30th in one of the deepest fields of women runners assembled this year at the 38th edition of the Tufts Health Plan Women's 10K in Boston, MA. The former Clemson standout cut 12 seconds off her time from last year, averaging 5:34 per mile pace, and improved two finish places. The race had over 5,000 finishers and is an annual Boston tradition on the second Monday of each October--as the city celebrates Columbus Day.
