Two Highland Park runners took the top two spots in the North Shore Classic Half & 5K on a mild and sunny Sunday morning, while a husband and wife from Crestwood snagged second in men’s and first in women’s. Brett Davidson finished first in the 5K with a time of 17:16 while Alexander Brown came in second at 19:26. Other Highland Park residents in the top 20 included David You in 10th, Josh Blacksmith in 12th and Barak Goldstein in 14th. Both races started and finished downtown at Park Avenue and St. Johns. The 5K looped east through residential areas, while the marathon course ran south to Lake Cook Road then back up Sheridan Road to Leonard Wood Avenue before returning downtown. Christopher Zablocki, 30, of Lakeview, won the half-marathon, which is 13.1 miles, with a time of 1:09:52. The course record is 1:05:51, set by John Mascari of Terre Haute, Indiana. “It feels good,” Zablocki said. “It’s a lucky day. I’ve been racing all spring and I keep getting second and third [in other marathons]. That felt tough because you do all that work and you lose.” Zablocki said he missed a marathon in Vermont due to a cancelled flight last week, so this win felt particularly good. This was his first time participating in the North Shore Classic and he praised the course. “It was nice,” Zablocki said. “There’s lots of trees and the weather actually Midlothian resident Jane Bareikis was the first woman to cross the finish line Sunday, June 2, at the North Shore Classic Half Marathon in Highland Park. photos by sarah zaute/22nd century media cooperated today.

Arturs Bareikis, 32, and Jane Bareikis, 24, were the husband and wife who took second in men’s and first in women’s. This was her first time winning, although last year she came in second place, Jane Bareikis said. “This year I was like, I gotta win,” she said. “Let me do it for my sister (Peninah, who passed away in April).” “It was not easy,” Jane Bareikis continued. “It was painful on my legs, but I said I’m not going to give up.” She also enjoyed the Highland Park course. “The course is amazing,” she said. “There’s trees everywhere, there’s shade and the weather was great. Of all the half-marathons I ran this year, I enjoyed this one the most.” Arturs Bareikis, fresh off winning the Fargo marathon two weeks ago, said he’s improving at the North Chicago resident Chris Zablocki came in first place in the race. Shore Classic. This was his fourth time and he’s finished fourth, third and second but has yet to win. “I always like doing North Shore,” Arturs Bareikis said. “It’s beautiful. This is one of the most beautiful courses in the area. There’s a slight hill on mile 7 but it’s always shaded and there’s a crowd. For anyone who hasn’t done it, I recommend it. It’s one of the better halves in the area.” Lou Seal, event director with RAM Racing, said there were around 2000 participants for both races, which is up from last year. He said most of the runners were from North Shore communities.
