This year they added a statue of a female runner to join the male statue that has been in place since 2002. Called "The River Runner", The statues commemorate the Gate River Run, a popular local race that has been going strong for 34 years. The Gate River Run is the largest 15k race in the country and serves as the USA 15k Championship.
Addendum: Both statues were created by sculptor Derby Ulloa, and commissioned by JTC Running, which is a local track club previously known as the Jacksonville Track Club.
Who are "they" and who is the artist?
