Quarry Road Race Series - The 2020 Covid-19 Edition

7/2/2020

 
Picture
In case you haven't heard, the Quarry Road Summer Race Series is happening again this year, albeit in a slightly different format due to the unique nature of the pandemic world we're living in right now.  Just in case you didn't know about it yet or if you just want to get more information, Patrick Guerette (the founder of the event) sent along this message: 

COVID-19 has really crushed the local racing scene this summer, which is one reason why I am thrilled that we were able to land on a racing format that provides an option for runners to compete. Not only are the courses just as challenging, time trials also add a unique mental test to the race, as it's much easier to push yourself when you are trying to close the gap on another runner, or running scared. Simply put, if you are able to push yourself on a solo effort, it will make you a stronger runner & racer in the future. 

With nearly 60 runners signed up to run this summer, and over 40 finishers in each of the first 2 weeks we have exceeded our original expectations for the series this summer. With that said, if you are not signed up for the series yet, it's not too late, there are still options to register for 1, 3 or all 9 (6 remaining) races by clicking here. 

After the first 2 weeks, it looks like there will be quite a few closely contested age group battles, which adds a bit of excitement to the race series, if you want to keep up on the results, we invite you to view our race results and standings online here.

See you on the trails!

-Patrick Guerette

Bonus Question:  Do you know what year Patrick organized the first Quarry Road Race Series?
Bonus Information:  As a paying member of the Central Maine Striders, you'll automatically get 10% off your registration for the Quarry Road Race Series.
