Craicfest 2017 Recap
Posted by Andy Nagelin in Club Races on March 12, 2017
It was a frosty one today. When we left Medford it was 9F and we were hoping the sun would warm things up.
We were lucky that we got to park in the Galleria garage and get some shelter from the elements. But even inside the garage it was freezing cold. As I walked around after the race, I could see my breath!
A quick count of MRC runners was eight. We had a group photo before the race with five of us. The photo is on the MRC Facebook page and I will post any others that I find.
Full results HERE.
I’ll have a more complete race recap tomorrow on the blog.
Thanks to everyone who came out today, we look forward to seeing everyone in Salisbury on April 1st!

Craicfest 2017
Posted by Andy Nagelin in Club Races on March 2, 2017
Craicfest 2017 is almost here!
Join Team MRC for a classic Cambridge 5K road race. Race #3 in the Melrose Race Series is sure to be a great time.
Race HQ is the Cambridgeside Galleria Mall. Plenty of free parking, convenient to The T and shelter from what ever Mother Nature dishes out on March 12th.
Craicfest Description
Craic (pronounced CRACK) is an Irish term that means “lively conversation” or “good times” and that’s exactly what you’ll experience at this year’s Cambridge 5K – Craicfest!
Registration includes a gender specific tech shirt plus free food and free beer at our cozy indoor party sponsored by Notch, Slumbrew & Bantam Cider!
Register HERE!
A unique course
How many Cambridge 5ks have you run that are basically the same course?
This course twists through some places in East Cambridge you probably haven’t run in before. I’ve run some of this route and there are some pretty cool places to see.
As of this evening, we have seven Melrose runners. Wear your club colors and join your friends for a fun run through the neighborhoods of East Cambridge.
Race Day registration begins at 7:30AM. Race time is 9:30AM.
Early bib pickup is at the Cambridgeside Galleria: Friday 5-8PM and Saturday Noon to 4PM.
