Dudley Pond Fun Run 2025 Results

10/10/2025

 
​The 27th annual Dudley Pond Run held on a sunny October 5 was a smashing success,
with more than 180 participants, a big increase over last year. We had 119 individually
registered runners and competitive walkers, one team with nine runners and 13 fitness
walkers. Some 41 kids competed for running prizes.

Rodrigo Gonzaga of Framingham took the laurels among male runners while Lauren Casey
of Wayland outpaced the women. Henry Stimpson of Wayland won the walking race.

​Thanks to all of many community businesses that generously sponsored the race and our
hardworking DPA volunteers!
