BRADBURY, HARPER WIN TOAST-TO-THE-CAPTAIN RACE

Kent Bradbury led the men from the start Saturday to win the 15th Annual Toast-To The Captain 8.4 mile Road Race, while Theresa Harper topped the women’s field.
Bradbury won in 52 minutes and 56 seconds; Leopold Fredericks was a close second in 53:49; Jabari Goodwin was third in 61:21; Gunnar Sanden, in a quick recovery after running two marathon in one month, was fourth in 62:08; Teddy Seymour, who the race celebrated, was fifth in 71:46; Warren Stansbury was sixth in 74:11; Lucke Fredericks was seventh in 79:36 and Ray Lutz was eighth in 80:40.
Harper, fine-tuning for her March marathon, was the first female and fourth overall in 62:08 and Jo Shim was second in 73:03.
The race honors Seymour, the first Black man to sail around the world alone. He started from Frederiksted on Feb. 24, 1986 and finished at the same spot on June 19, 1987. Awards and certificates were presented by Seymour following the race near his boat docked just a few feet from the finish line in historic Christiansted.
