Tim Milenkevich of Ansonia captured his second straight Commodore Hull Thanksgiving Day 5K Road Race in a very fast time of 16 minutes flat on a cold and very blustery day on the streets of Derby and Shelton.
He broke away from a pack of four runners at about the 1 mile mark and held the lead the rest of the way.
Runner-up Bobby Giuliani stayed close behind until the very end when Milenkevich had opened his final margin of victory at 11 seconds.
