Hello…I am Adams Hangover. I will be posting the results and writing the blog this week. Adam would have liked to have been here in person, but he doesn’t really know where here is right now, so I will in his stead. Hangover is more of a title than a name, so for references sake…

Finally getting this post up about the Rockport Father’s Day 5K/10K race last week. It was a good turnout and lots of D5Kers came away with points for the YMCA series — like over 600 points if I am counting correctly. Awesome. For future reference, this is a very hilly course and it appears that…

All in all, considering the past few weeks climatic punishment of precipitation, I would say we had some rather good weather for our little run this week. Not that bad weather would deter runners like you from showing up anyway.   So as far as show ups go, we had 42  runners show up ready…

Was there something in the Air? Maybe it was the upcoming inclement weather, or our new aerial advertising. Whichever, runners were crawling out of the woodwork tonight. We hosted a total of 60 runners this evening, the most we have had in quite some time. As well we were shy an easy half dozen regulars,…

It looks like we have five races to cover this weekend so I am going to try and do it all in this one post. Before I get into it, I want to highlight two performances: (1) Ben Goodhue ran three 5ks this weekend PR’ing  on Saturday and placing 2nd 30-39 on Sunday, and (2)…

47 runners, 10 personal records, 5 first timers, and yet another new course record. To think, at 6:40 I was sitting by myself flippin popsicle sticks and crackin open a fresh brewsky, what a difference 20 minutes can make.   Junyong Pak must have really been listening when I was giving out some free pointers, because he…

looking for some feedback. Be honest though, I can take it. Leave a comment with your thoughts.

Well if you include Oliver the dog we had “12” new runners this week. That may be a record, if not then certainly close to it. Throw “5” Personal Records in there with the 50 runners that made up our field, and you got yourself a pretty good little Wednesday night.  Special Kudos out to…

When a race involves beer, you know at least a few D5Kers are likely to show up. And so it was at the Harpoon Brewery 5 Miler on Saturday where Matt Adams, TR Ramsdell, and Christina Nawn took on the odd distance of 5.3 miles (my guess is that the guy measuring the course was…

Two big stories at the Hornet Hustle 5k in North Reading today. First of all, congratulations to Dave Long who won the race AND set a new course record. Great job, Dave! Second of all, those of you who have been around the D5K for a while will remember Chris Soucy who was a regular…
