ASICS Greenville Track Club-ELITE's Jason Weitzel and Mackenzie Lowe placed second among men and women, respectively, in the United Community Bank 44th Reedy River Run 10K on Saturday morning. Weitzel placed second for the second time in this historic race as he covered the challenging course in a quick 29:47--some 35 seconds faster than in the 2021 race (which was held on Labor Day in September due to COVID-19). He finished behind two-time defending champion James Quattlebaum, who not only won for the third time, but set what is believed to be an event record of 29:20. Quattlebaum and Weitzel have been ranked first and second all year in the South Carolina Road Race Rankings. 

In the women's division, Lowe improved on her third place in 2021 by finishing second with a Personal Best of 36:16, dropping 1 minute and 39 seconds from her time here last year. She finished only four seconds behind Mauldin, SC's Victoria Hammersmith, who won in 36:12. Hammersmith was the 2021 SC Long Distance Runner of the Year.  

Weitzel earned $650 for his performance ($400 for 2nd overall, $50 for 2nd South Carolinian and $200 time bonus) and Lowe takes home $450 (2nd overall and South Carolinian).
