Cupid’s Chase 5K postponed
Posted by Andy Nagelin in Club Races on February 12, 2017
As most of you know, the Cupid’s Chase 5K was postponed.
The sidewalks around Lake Quannapowitt were plowed but not well enough to accommodate a large group of runners. While most runners would have run in the street, the snow banks made the roads narrow and more dangerous for runners.
I hope that postponing the race to February 18th won’t inconvenience too many people. I know I plan my races around work and family events. Sometimes I race two weekends in a row and a situation like this would be an issue.
Winter Weather
This time of year anything can happen. Two years ago snowmageddon started this way. A good storm the week after The Super Bowl and then one storm right after the other.
The Sunday Long Run was a challenge this weekend. It was snowing, the streets were narrow and the side walks were in rough shape.
There is a blizzard watch being posted sometime Sunday. Hopefully it wont amount to much and there will be time to clean it up before next weekend.
So hang in there and I’ll look to see you next week in Wakefield!
