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!

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.

Cupid’s Chase 5K is Tomorrow
Posted by Andy Nagelin in Club Races on February 17, 2017
Tomorrow is supposed to be a great day for a run with highs in the 40s!
Come show your MRC colors at the Cupid’s Chase 5K.
This one is right in our back yard and on a course many of us have run many times. If you are running the Sunday Long Run, this will be a nice warm up event for you!
I encourage all MRC runners to wear their colors and come run a fun local race!
Race Day Registration and bib pickup begins at 8AM.
Day of Fees: Individuals $35 Couples $65
Race start time is 10AM
If you are new to the club and maybe have never ran a 5K before, this is a nice flat course for you! Come join the gang and have a wicked good time!
Did I mention that they are serving Sam Adams after the race?
