Wicked Frosty Four Rocks!

Runners take off at the Start of the Wicked Frosty Four.

What a great day for the Wicked Running Club! The 3rd Annual Wicked Frosty Four was a huge success. There were a total of 532 registered runners and 449 runners finished the 4 mile course. This was our largest turnout yet for the race. The Frosty Four would not be the success it is without the hard work and dedication from the members of the Wicked Running Club.

From our fearless Race Director; Rich Tomlins to our excellent volunteer coordinator; Alison Phelan and the countless other Wicked Runners who not only helped out with the pre-race planning but also day of race activities and supported the race overall, the reason why this race has been such a success over the past 3 years is because of the great people within Wicked. Below is a list of those who supported this years race (if anyone was missed in the list, please email newsletter@wickedrunningclub.com):

The party got started after the race with lots of great food and some sparkling cider!

While there were 449 finishers in this year’s race, there were actually 532 registered runners! Both records for the race. So how does one feed 449 runners after a 4 mile race? With tons of great food! One thing that the Wicked Frosty Four is famous for is it’s large food spread. Sandwiches from Chic-fil-A, bread and pastries from Panera Bread, soups from Kettle Cuisine, oranges/bananas from McKinnon’s, cookies from Shortcakes, Cape Cod Chips, and yogurt were just some of tasty food that greeted runners when they made their way up to the festivities on the second floor of Old Town Hall.

There were lots of tasty treats for runners that finished the race, including these Wicked cookies from Shortcakes.

After every runner left Old Town Hall and the clean up was completed from the race, members from Wicked took to the streets to run the Wicked Frosty Four course. What is becoming a tradition, also gives members a chance to unwind from a busy morning. There was a mini snowball fight between Rich Tomlins, Dan Sullivan, Tim Short and Liz Touchette. This group should probably stick to running as most of the snowballs missed their intended targets. The 3rd Annual Wicked Frosty Four is now in the books and there will be many great stories to come out that will be posted on the website.
