There was Kevin Castille, blazing down Richmond Road for all the world to see, turning in the most dominating performance in the 36 years of the annual Bluegrass 10,000.
At 40, Castille is the first "masters division" winner of the 6.2-mile footrace.
Finishing in 30 minutes, 7 seconds, he finished a whopping 2:03 ahead of runner-up Musa Kimali. Until Wednesday, the greatest margin of victory in a Bluegrass was a 2:02 knockout by Benny McIntosh, who ran 30:19 to Mike Snyder's 32:21 in 1994.
While Castille was practically out of sight from his pursuers, he was in plain view of an admiring crowd.

Congratulations to Kevin! Kevin worked here at Red's for years until he moved away to pursue his racing. We, at Red's, still affectionately consider him one of Red's family. Wishing him all the best in his racing career.
