Hundreds of runners and walkers hit the trails of the Milestone Cranberry Bog on Saturday morning for the 24th annual Race for Open Space, a fundraiser for the Nantucket Conservation Foundation. Luke MacKay and Sarah Roberts, both of Nantucket, took top honors in the 5K with times of 18:59 and 21:10, respectively. In the 10K, Boston's George Rand placed first in 37:54, while Chicago's Lucy Gund won the women's division in 42:22. Proceeds from the race help support the NCF's mission to preserve and protect the island's open spaces.
