Short review
THE BLOWOUT IS BACK!
One of the first events to be canceled at the beginning of the pandemic is now one of the first to make its comeback in the state's Return to Racing (V 2). All the great features of the past, with modifications to keep things safe and healthy in the time of COVID (see the special Safe Race protocols we'll be instituting in this regard).
While Boston and most of the other spring marathons have moved to the fall, we think there's still a desire to do a long run with some socially distanced friends. And if you want to do something shorter, we have 10 and 20km options.
THE ONLY EVENT OF ITS KIND IN CT - TAKE YOUR PICK OF DISTANCE (you can even change it while you’re in it!) How can we offer that? We designed a great 10K course that you can run once, twice or three times. With chip timing you’ll get accurate times for the 10K split, the 20k split and YOUR finish distance. With our safe, flat loop (that includes a 7/10 mi smooth trail section) you’ll be able to maintain a consistent pace of your choice. We offer a low key event to keep costs down, but still have a quality run and enjoy the experience.
We always hear “There are no 10Ks in CT anymore!” So here’s one to try. Well marked, quiet roads, early morning start with a warm building to come back to. If you feel great and decide to extend your run for another loop we can accommodate that!
It is true there aren’t many 20Ks in CT- so here’s an opportunity to try the 12.4mile distance. It’s a great training run for a future half marathon, marathon or just because...and a great chance to run a PR if you’re ready.
Our courses are on the flattest roads in the South Pine Creek area of Fairfield- perfect for a great pacing run. It also includes a groomed trail portion that will help your legs recover thru a peaceful setting. Our course is designed to take advantage of a new groomed trail section and decrease water table distances. The course is designed so that you will have water available for you three times on each 10k loop.
The finish line for the 30K will remain open until 3:06:24 (10 min. pace). Those planning to run slower must start early. The course is well marked with signage, cones and flour arrows on the streets. Course maps will be available and the link is right here: https://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=6810329
ChronoTrack timing is used for all events with 10k splits available for the 20K and 30K distances.
Post-run snacks, fluids, and swag will be waiting for you at our Scandinavian Club venue.
