  • Comments: This is just a great race held in my "back yard" on a course I run on all the time. I have no excuse to not do this race every year. Well organized. Lots of water (not that I used any) as it's an out and back with 2 water stations (thus 4 opportunities for water). Post race activities good with cider, fruit, chips, bread, chowder while socializing listening to a local band jam. Would be a good race for a early November group get together. There are some very fast kids in this race. I was crushed by an 8 year old who ran a 41:09 and a 9 year old who ran a 38:29. Lots of other high schoolers who just school us older folks. Was pretty cool when my son reminded me that he wanted to do the fun run today and then afterwards him saying that he thought he might want to train to try and run the whole thing next year.

  • Comments: Classic fall road race, great course, a large turnout, and a pub about 100 yards past the finish line. OToo bad they stopped giving long sleeve shirts. They really need to use a starting mat for the chip times.
