BAA 5K

When:  Sunday, April 17 @ 8:00 AM
Where:  Copley Square
Distance:  Less Than 26.2 miles

Hey hey hey, it's the BAA 5K!  If you aren't running the Boston Marathon this year, you can still participate in the festivities by running this thing, which is 23.1 miles less than the following day's grueling event.  The 5K course is flat and fast, finishing at the same spot in Copley Square that the marathon traditionally ends.  Erstwhile CRCer Jenn Campbell (above) won it all last year.  Who's gonna keep our streak alive?

Hyannis Half Marathon & 10K Race Report

2/27/2011: The morning of the Hyannis half marathon/10K began with about an inch of fresh snow, which was easily ignored by the winter-hardened CRC runners who have been training through blizzards for the past 3 months. CRC had a very strong presence in the half marathon led by Brian Klein and Marcus Alexander and a smaller, but equally strong, showing in the 10K thanks to Brian Burg and Charlie Knutson. Post race festivities were short-lived due to the fact that everyone was wet and cold, but included delicious soup and donuts. Congrats to all CRC racers!
