From the organizer
Joyeux 14 Juillet! Happy July 14th! Bastille Day is an annual DC Road Runners tradition and one of the Club's few races that occur during the work week. We're meeting at Fletcher's Cove for a 5k on the C&O Canal Towpath. The Towpath provides a flat racecourse that is often shaded in the summer.
In addition to overall winners (1, 2, 3) and master's winners, we will offer awards 3-deep, male and female in 10-year age groups.
Registration is free for members and $10 for nonmembers. Members will see their $10 discount at checkout
