Calling all Wicked Runners! The brand new North Shore Cancer RUN is just over a month away and it’s time to start thinking about getting some of the final few details in place for race day. One of those details would be making sure that we have enough volunteers at the start/finish areas and on on the course.
As you all are aware, Wicked is working with the North Shore Medical Center to do the first ever 5K Cancer RUN this year, on the 20 year anniversary of the NSMC Cancer walk. The RUN is going to have a start time of 11am on June 20th and we are still in need of volunteers! We would love to have a strong Wicked Presence and are asking for your help. Depending on your assignment, you could need to be there as early 9am and stay as late as about 1:30pm.
Family and Friends of Wicked are welcome to volunteer as well!
So, please feel free to contact Stephaine Hagyard, Tim Clarke and Alison Phelan and let us know that you can help out.
The next planning meeting for the North Shore Cancer RUN is on Thursday, May 27th at 6pm at the Senior Center located at 5 Broad St in Salem.
Also, check out this video at www.youtube.com of a radio commercial that is now playing on WALK/RUN sponsor: North Shore 104.9 FM.
Don’t forgot to follow updates about the Cancer RUN on Facebook & Twitter.
Wicked’s very talented Dan Barrett has been extra busy latley updating the race results page on wickedrunningclub.com. From a Boston Marathon qualifier in Oregon to an escape from Alcatraz, then all the way back to the east coast with a race to honor a fallen hero and a tour through the Ocean State. You will find lots of great results on the Race Results page!
As a kick off to the weekend, Wicked Runners took part in the Backshore 5 Mile Road race in Gloucester. James DeLuca posted on Facebook that his time was his first PR since August! Congrats James and great job to everyone else who ran! GO WICKED!
