DIXON – Jessica Langford did not beat the Dixon High School boys cross country runners she helps train, but she did beat the Dixon girls and all the other females Saturday for the fourth straight time in the 13th annual Reagan Run 5K.

The 41-year-old from Rockford became just the second four-time winner of the race and the first person to win four straight in either of the top two divisions with her time of 18 minutes, 21.02 seconds.

Langford bested runner-up Suzy Stanley, 42, of Rock Falls, who was also the 2011 runner-up, by a minute and 20 seconds.
