Dozens of local runners turned out Saturday morning for a longtime feature of the Louisiana Shrimp & Petroleum Festival: the Marcus Jones 100 Black Men 5K Run in downtown Morgan City. The event's namesake, Marcus Jones, was at the run at age 80. The best time was turned in by Joseph Gil of Centerville, who finished in 17:52. His sister, Tracy Gil, was the first female finisher with a 21:20.
