Weaver wins Sourwood 5K

Josey Weaver, 19, of Weaverville, was certainly not moving like the race's namesake sourwood honey today when he won the Sourwood 5K in 15 minutes, 40 seconds.
Race director Andrew Marsh said the race brought out a record 226 runners, as it kicked off Black Mountain's annual Sourwood Festival, which continues on Sunday.
The first overall female finisher was 18-year-old Sarah Willingham of Hendersonville, with a time of 18:45.
The race also included the Cheshire Pump and Run, in which 5K runners were able to deduct time from their runs by pumping a certain amount of weight before the race began. The overall Pump and Run winner was Sarah Duvall, 27, of Asheville, who won with a time of 10:03.
