MRC Racing Series

The MRC 2023 Racing Series is drawing to a conclusion with one last race on December 17th, The Somerville Jingle Bell 5K.

The top three runners for 2023 are as follows:

Ed Miller	10
Christine Derse	7
Jeanne Boisseau	6

With just the Jingle Bell 5K to go, I don’t expect these results to change very much.

I have been working on the 2024 schedule and several people have suggested races that have not been on our schedule before. The Great Stew Chase moved to February, so we will have two races that month.

In March we are back to Haverhill for the Hill Thrill 5K and 10 Miler. I heard a lot of good things about this race.

In April we will be back in Lynn for the Black Excellence 5K. I ran this race in 2023 and it was well organized and a lot of fun.

In May we are off to Carson Beach in Boston for the Boston AAPI 5K. Not sure about parking, but we may want to work on a carpool for this one.

Registration for the Wicked Frosty Four and Great Stew Chase are open. I’m still waiting on the other race to open registration.

If you have any race suggestions for races June and later, please send your cards and letters!

Run well My Friends,

Andy
