MRC Racing Series

We seem to alternate between monsoon season and blast furnace season. Take your pick, which do you prefer?

I’ve added more races for August, September and October, based on suggestions from Yvonne Liu-Constant and Jessica Crispin.

I also added Yankee Homecoming 5K and Berna’s Great Legs 5K to have two series races on week day nights. Not everyone can run on the weekend.

Please continue to pass along race suggestions.

I try to keep them local, not too expensive and supportive of a good cause if possible. It doesn’t always work out that way. 😉

And don’t forget, this year no race is worth more than two points. The top spot is still open to anyone who wants it.

While looking for races tonight, I noticed all the club shirts at the start line of all of these races. I know most of us don’t want to line up at the front, but we should be wearing club shirts at race series races.

I can’t tell you how many times people have walked up to me at a race and asked about the club. Sometimes these people even show up on Tuesday night!

Stay cool and sign up for a race!

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!
