TORTOISE & HARE SCHEDULE:
The Tortoise & Hare is a monthly "handicap" series of races (with the exception of April and August). Computer predicted times allow runners of all levels to compete equally. Runners start at staggered intervals with faster runners (Hares) trying to reel in slower runners (Tortoises). If you are a first time runner, please come prepared with an idea of your current pace so we can assign a handicap.
The top finishers of each race receive points and finishers ribbons. Points are awarded to Top 10 finishers in decending order from 15 to 6 and all finishers not in the Top 10 receive 5 points - except first-timers. Points are accumulated through the series and the Top 3 at the end of the series receives cash prizes!
Entry fees are only $5 for members and $10 for non-members and includes a free breakfast at a local bagel shop. Race starts at 8 AM. Registration on race day only.
