About 1,600 runners laced up their sneakers for the 37th annual road Chilmark Road Race. With a cool breeze and warm temperatures, the runners followed the familiar five-kilometer route along Middle Road to the finish line at Beetlebung Corner. Some ran dressed in costumes, some ran to win, and others were content to take their time.
