News and Announcements March 2024
By: Robert Jones
IT’S SHAMROCK TIMEEEEE!!!!!!!: The Shamrock Shuffle is one of my favorite racing events of the year because it is one where the community always turns out! AND this year in particular is special because not only is the Shamrock part of our racing series, NOT ONLY is it part of the New Hampshire Grand Prix, BUT it is in THREE Racing series including our friends and neighbors the Central Vermont Runners! It’s a great time to connect with our broader running community! So our club tent will be set up on the Lebanon green and will be a gathering point for us and others. Feel free to come by before and after the race to hang out, drop off your stuff (dry clothes, snackies, sundries, etc), and socialize with your fellow runners! For those interested we’ll also try to do a group warm up around 11:35 before the race!
Tuesday Night Track: Welp I would say that spring appears to be here! Which means we will be making our glorious return to the track! Keep an eye out on your emails for specific details but the plan is to head back to the Hanover High School Track starting 12 March.
March Runners Night Out will be March 12th aka Pi Day Eve…eve, at Hanover Ramuntos! Come hang out with your pal’s after Tuesday Night Track!
