LYNNFIELD — Burlington, Vermont’s Richard Carrick and Lynnfield’s Olivia Lamarche paced a field of nearly 230 runners at the 49th annual 4th of July Road Race Monday.
Carrick, 29, topped the field with an overall time of 17:45 for the 5K race, setting a mile pace of 5:44.
Lamarche, 18, took top honors among the women in 19:40, running a mile pace of 6:21. She finished 13th overall out of 229 entrants.
In spite of the heat, the race was a huge success for the Lynnfield Athletic Association (LAA), which runs the event as a fundraiser to support the athletes and athletic programs of the Lynnfield High School Pioneers.

The LAA also runs a category exclusively for Lynnfield High School students, which attracted a field of 16 runners this year, nine girls and seven boys.
Finishing first among all LHS runners was Jonathan Luders, 15, who turned in a time of 19:39 (6:21 pace).
In addition to winning the overall race among the women’s field, Lamarche was the top LHS finisher for the girls, and placed second overall among all LHS runners, finishing one second behind Luders.
The Pioneers finishing third through 15th were: 3) Joseph Motzkin, 18, 20:49; 4) Anthony Wilkinson, 16, 23:30; 5) Elizabeth Shaievitz, 16, 23:50; 6) Davin Blake, 15, 24:21; 7) Elizabeth Reed, 16, 24:47; 8) Meryl Braconnier, 18, 25:36; 9) Connor Reardon, 18, 25:37; 10) Lilli Patterson, 17, 26:07; 11) Cory Lanza, 17, 26:28; 12) Ashley Barrett, 15, 26:32; 13) Hannah Scollard, 18, 27:08; 14) Brianna Barrett, 15, 32:39; 15) Sophia Wilkinson, 14, 35:02; 16) Joseph Haas, 15, 38:41.
