A couple of former Jamestown College runners made strong marathon debuts on Sunday.

Katie Conlon, an 11-time All-American in cross country and track and field for the Jimmies, won the Moose Tooth's Marathon in Anchorage, Alaska.

Conlon, who also earned All-American in cross country at Division I powerhouse Oregon last fall, ran a time of 3 hours, 5 minutes and 54 seconds in her first ever 26.214-mile race. Conlon lives in Seattle.

The race featured cool and damp conditions, which are favorable for runners.
