BW50 v3.0 - Sunday, November 25, 2012 0800


Join us for the 3rd Annual Buckeye Woods 50K Run. This is a free Medina County Road Runners Club event.

The location is Buckeye Woods County Park. The event begins promptly at 8:00 AM. Please arrive at least a few minutes early for the pre-race meeting.

Runners will traverse a 5-mile circuit around lakes and through woods six times, followed by a 1-mile loop to make 31 miles. The route is 95% dirt trails, and it's flat as a pancake. Here is a map of the course.

Aid will be very limited. We will use the picnic shelter at the start/finish and provide some water and maybe other stuff. Runners should plan to bring their supplies.

You may rsvp by joining the FaceBook event page, OR by emailing Dan Horvath at runhorvathrun@hotmail.com. We will close the event when our limit of 40,000 runners is exceeded.

Runners who make it as far as 25K, but not as far as 50K will be recognized in the results as having completed a 25K run.

Good weather is guaranteed. Or your money back.

And speaking of money, yes the event is free, but participants, including non MCRR members, are welcome to make donations of any kind or amount. Non MCRR members who donate $20 or more will be given FREE MCRR membership for one year!! What an incentive!!! (How's that for a way to get folks to join?) Next year we will probably restrict the freebeeness of the event to MCRR members only.
