Great Job Congratulations to all of our Boston Marathon runners. It always amazes me how much work and effort you put in for it. I saw a (picture of a) newspaper clipping that showed five of the ten top finishers from North Andover are our people. (Even if they technically run for another club). Fast ...
You’re Kind of a Big Deal BAA Boston Marathon. I think there’s not much else to say. So I’ll just say the same things I said last year. Badasses. Our runners are kind of a big deal. Here is the list of our friends who are preparing to run Monday. For those about to ...
Quarantine I’m sick as a dog. I couldn’t get out of bed Monday. Shakes, shivers, coughing, all of it running around my head, making me miserable. Can’t breathe, can’t run. What to do? Boston is right around the corner. Some of you are running THE race. Some of you will be spectators, either online or ...
All, We have only 2 people who have expressed desire to engage in the BRC Run to Breakfast. One will dash at approx 8:30 pace, and one will cruise between 9 and 10 minutes per mile, maybe slower after 14 miles in. In addition, the weather blows. Literally. The Weather Underground forecast is calling for ...
Random Jumble of Stuff Time Change. Pi Day. St Patrick’s Day. Pick your poison. Celebrate any way you like, but maybe also celebrate by going to Haverhill for a border. Pick up the Boxford border as necessary. Wear green. Bring a pie. Drink some beer. Or don’t. https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/fullscreen/1745985692/ BRC Express. A shorter route, but ...
Out and Back. Another long mileage run this week. Head out to North Reading. Extra motivated runners can go all the way to Middleton, too. https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/fullscreen/2281572142/ Longer distance? Speedy Petey says that “for anyone interested, I'll be running a bonus route on Saturday morning, which overlaps with the BRC route on the "out" to NR. ...
Problem: Not a Meteorologist: OK. I am going out on a limb here. It looks like it MAY be pretty crappy weather on Saturday. I’d rather not suggest that you run somewhere too hazardous. I had planned on recommending North Reading, but I’d feel a little bad if someone were run over by a non-beer ...
Not everybody wants to go run 20 miles. Some people might want to, but don’t have time. Some people might be enjoying vacation, but feel guilty for all the beers and want to get out and move a little bit. Well, this week, you can decide how far you want to run. Just go do ...
Recycling We haven’t run this one in a while. Looks like fun. Plus, RWOBs can get the Andover border https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/fullscreen/1107531334/ BRC Express and Return to Running Two options for BRC Express this week. You can run to downtown Andover, which covers most (6.3 miles) of the main route, or you can re-run the BRC 5K ...
