As a highlight of the Road Race Management Race Directors' Meeting, Bill Roe was named the MarathonFoto/Road Race Management Lifetime Achievement Award winner for 2017.

The award is made for contributions to the sport of long distance road running over the course of a lifetime. Scores of nominations were received that read like a Who's Who of running. The 10-member committee had the difficult task of reviewing the nominees.

A committee made up of race directors, athletes, media, corporate executives and club officials also  named Flying Pig Marathon Director Iris Simpson Bush the MarathonFoto/Road Race Management Race Director of the Year.

Both individuals were honored at a reception at the Road Race Management Race Directors’ Meeting in St. Petersburg, FL on November 9.

The MarathonFoto/Road Race Management awards are made annually to recognize and promote excellence in race directing. Nominees were judged on several factors, including overall ability, reputation of race, creativity and organizational ability.
