New race series

Race series events are pretty cool. Our Seven Sisters Two Brothers series in Dewey Beach has been a huge hit with the runners and walkers. Many who join us come from all over the US. We are fortunate to have the cooperation of the Town of Dewey Beach and the local residents who allow us to run through their neighborhoods. Fast flat routes, great tee shirts, and a post race party on the decks of local restaurants owned by sponsor Highway One Group. Beer is provided for those over 21 thanks to sponsor Michelob Ultra. You just have to complete ALL 9 events to win awards. Another series lined up for 2009 is the Michelob Ultra Race to the Finish Line Restaurant Series. We have 15 restaurants who we work with to raise funds for charities. You only have to run in 6 of these races (the six pack) but the more you run the better chance of winning prizes. We will score your top 6 times and use place finish in age groups to score points. JR Ward will handle this for us. The overall male and female will win mountain bikes courtesy of Michelob Ultra. Age group winners win a tailgate beach pack. Details posted on races2run. And yes.....beer at all these 5k events......thirsty yet?
