Olympic gold medalist Whitney wins Rat Race
Ashley Whitney is a Nashville native and resident who won a swimming gold medal in the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. That was in the women's 800-meter freestyle relay. Saturday she finished first in a much longer race, the 4.5-mile option in the ninth annual Chattanooga Rat Race in the Tennessee River. The 34-year-old Whitney covered the distance in 1 hour, 15 minutes, 28.4 seconds. The men's winner was William Boldt, 54, from the Auburn Masters Swimmers in 1:17:42.7. Ooltewah resident Tom Hancock from the McCallie River Rats was Boldt's runner-up in 1:19:27.3, and Allison Ware of Franklin was the second-place woman in 1:20:08.3. Jennifer Kuklinski, 31, of Birmingham won the 2.4-mile race Saturday in 46:25.1 with 52-year-old Keitaro Mikami of Roswell, Ga., the men's winner in 46:43.1. The 2.4-mile runners-up were Kay Baker of Chattanooga and the River Rats in 48:00.8 and Casey Fannin of Birmingham in 48:18.5.
