Just like last year, we will be starting at 8:00 am and the format is the same.... every top of the hour we line up and run a 4.167-mile loop within the Needham town forest and part of the Needham Rail Trail. There will be one winner and everyone else wonderfully will receive a DNF. The winner will be the last person running by himself.

We will NOT be crossing any roads and this is a self-sufficient race. The route and start location are the same as last year. The route map is further down this page and the start/finish location is the Claxton Field Quarry, located across the street from the Needham Recycling Center on Central Ave. 

Parking: Please park at the Horsford Pond parking lot and the Claxton Field lot

Logistics: Bring whatever you need to run your loops. We will provide water, race logistics, and good cheer.
