From Our Patron, Meg Brower- A Wallis Sands Half Marathon Race Recap from October 2020
This week, we have another race recap from a live and in-person race. It is from our patron, Meg Brower! Thank you for sending this in and letting us accomplish, explore, and indulge along with you! We look forward to a time when we can travel, see your part of the country, and run with you!
Meg was also kind enough to send us some race recommendations for New Hampshire, so we can all be prepared when in-person races return to us!
New England Race Recommendations from Meg:
If you are interested in running a race up in the NH seacoast Area these would be my recommendations once races come back in person:
Wallis Sands Half Marathon in Rye, NH, usually in May
Smuttynose Rockfest Half Marathon in Hampton, NH usually the first weekend in October (This one has entry to a free concert of local bands, a small lobster roll, and chowder at the finish. In addition to your half zip race shirt and medal. They also have a 5k distance option usually)
Saunders 10k Rye, NH 3rd Thursday night in August
Great Island 5k ( Sunday of Columbus Day Weekend) New Castle, NH
That all being said, if you are only ever going to do one New England Race, I would do the Falmouth Road Race in Falmouth, MA. It is the MOST scenic race I have ever run. It is all along the ocean, all 7 miles. It starts in Woods Hole, MA, and ends in Falmouth, MA. It’s a point to point course. Dave McGivallry (Boston Marathon Race Director) is the race director for this one as well. I have run this race 8 times as my Aunt has a home in Falmouth, MA. It is the 3rd Sunday in August. It is a lottery only race. Totally worth it, though.
Also, the Boston BAA 5K, which is the Saturday before the Marathon, is a great one too but more big city, not ocean scenic. You may have to choose between this one and Star Wars Weekend at Walt Disney World, though!
THAT’S A WRAP!
