KATHERINE HEPBURN 4-MILER AT CEDAR HILL CEMETERY, 2/22/04, Hartford, CT
Cedar Hill Cemetery is the final resting place of actress Katherine Hepburn. Samuel Colt,
J.P. Morgan, George Athanson and Wallace Stevens are also buried there.
Jacob Weidenmann, who is credited with designing both this cemetery and Bushnell Park,
is also buried here. You can get more information at www.cedarhillcemetery.org .
Runners have enjoyed running in the cemetery for many years; it's a beautiful refuge
from noise and traffic. Bill Shortell remembers running there in the 1960s when he
was a student at Trinity College, coached by the legendary Barry Almond.
This race was founded by Bill Katz who lives about a mile away in Hartford and runs
in the cemetery often. He still is the race director. He gets some help from David Reik
and Linda Weidemier. John Fearnley, the Collinsville Bake-Off winner, showed up this
year and helped keep the runners going the right way on this twisting and hilly four-mile
course. The course was measured by Bill Katz with one of the HTC measuring wheels.
This race was part of the Hartford Track Club Winter Series, a series of informal races of
a variety of distances at a variety of locations in the greater Hartford area. Go to
