The Day For the past several years, (at least as far as I can remember) we’ve stopped to pay tribute to those who have volunteered their service to our nation’s military, that service being crucial to securing our liberty and our way of life. We also thank and honor the several club members who ...
The Lights Are On I’ve been without power for most of the week. Luckily, most people are back by now, so I don’t have to send this via smoke signals. Not much to write this week. I know many of the side roads are still very cluttered. Simple Out-And-Back route this week on a main ...
Festive Attire Encouraged I’m not suggesting that this group has supernatural or otherworldly powers, but last year, someone dressed as his favorite orange-skinned person, and now we have a new president. Coincidence? Maybe. But just in case, you should dress up in something reflecting your fantastic desires. Batman? Superman? Someone dressed as a border sign? ...
Races this weekend We’ve got a couple local popular races this weekend. On Saturday, there’s the Knights on the Run 5K starting over at North Andover High School, and on Sunday we’ll see the Baystate Marathon in Lowell. I know we usually have high participation in these events, both as runners and spectators. Good luck ...
READ CAREFULLY. TWO DIFFERENT START TIMES You Read that Right. Tomorrow we’re hitting EVERY DANG BORDER. Thirty-six miles of pure joy. A twenty mile loop and a sixteen mile loop.

I am pressed for time. No imagination today. Working late. Hopefully you’re thinking about running more than I am. Some of us have an Away Game I’m not sure I have the whole list so I apologize to anyone I missed, but some BRC are running the Chicago Marathon this weekend. We wish our best ...
Here Comes Fall. So… This week was warm, huh? It’s been a good summer, but I’m done. Ready for the next season? I think it’s about time for autumn to show up. Maybe we should do something scenic to take advantage of the beautiful weather predicted for Saturday morning. A nice morning run ought ...
Still Recovering. Congratulations are in order for the three BRC teams who took New Hampshire this past weekend. Team Wait for Us repeated their dominance of the Men’s Sub-Masters Ultra with a 1st place finish. Team What R You Waiting 4? Likewise rocked it and took 3rd in their division (Mixed Sub-Masters) for the second ...
Looks like a lot of us are away this weekend I know we’ve got a lot of members and friends who will be in New Hampshire this weekend, terrorizing the locals, and committing general mayhem while running from Bretton Woods to Hampton Beach. Given the opportunity, some people thought it might be a good time ...
