National Marathon Volunteers Needed |
|
Club Members, the Board voted at our last meeting to support the National Marathon by manning a water stop. We will be at mile 21/22 which is in Anacostia Park. We would like to have a large turnout to cheer on and support runners as they are in the home stretch. Check the website for information and sign up to volunteer. We will need to be there from 8:45 – 12:45 and if you need to come late, or leave early you will not be able to drive as the road will be closed. I will be in touch with the Community Relations Director to get information about specific times for road closure. Please consider coming out to support our club runners and newest members who have been training for this event. So sign up to join us as we cheer for runners in their last miles. |

The Snowball Series is entering its home stretch! (Hopefully, so is winter weather.) The eighth race is the Fort Hunt 10K next Sunday, March 14th. Click on the link for more information and to register online. Don't forget that Daylight Savings Time begins Sunday morning, so set your clocks forward or you'll miss the start.
This race is held on National Park Service land, which means you MUST register online.
Race Director Kristin Blanchat needs a few more volunteers to help with the Fort Hunt 10K. If you can assist on March 14th, please e-mail her. |

RRCA Ten Mile Challenge Results |

Congratulations to the 18 men and 5 women who ran the Maryland RRCA Ten-Mile Challenge Sunday morning. DCRRC placed 8th among co-ed teams and 7th among men's teams (we had too few women runners to place among women's teams). Matt Anderson was our first male finisher with a time of 1:05:06; Sarah Andresen was our first female finisher with a time of 1:14:29. Complete results are at http://www.striders.net/races/rrca/2010. Well done to all! |
