Peconic Landing held its annual 5K and May Mile race in Greenport Saturday morning. 

This year the race was renamed the Peconic Landing John May Mile & 5K Race in honor of John M. May, the longtime Peconic Landing board chairman and community advocate who died last August.

John May’s grandson Brian McDonnell of Burlington, VT came in first with a time of 16 minutes 34 seconds and Sara Leonard was the first female finisher in 22:10.9.
