This year marks the 28th Anniversary of the Women's Distance
Festival. Please join us on Sunday, May 17, 2009 at 8 A.M. at Goucher
College. This event includes a 5 K race for women of all ages and
abilities. Whether you are a competitive runner, a jogger, or
beginner runner/walker we invite you to participate in this popular,
annual event.
The Goucher College campus provides a scenic, gently rolling two-loop
course. You will enjoy the camaraderie of fellow walkers and runners
and will be cheered on by our volunteers along the way. Awards and
random prizes are always a big hit. Because this is a women's race,
the awards are unique and custom designed with the woman in mind. We include special categories for recognizing "Mother/Daughter" and Grandmother/Granddaughter" teams-so make this a family affair! And,
you'll want to stay for the post race refreshments and photos!
The Baltimore Road Runners' Club is proud to have been associated
with this event over the course of the years and we will continue to
support women's health and fitness as host of one of the races in the
Grand Prix Series statewide. The 2009 Maryland Women's Distance
Festival Grand Prix Series is sponsored by the Maryland RRCA and its
participating RRCA clubs. The WDF Grand Prix Series consists of twelve 5K (3.1 miles) races for women runners of all ages and abilities. Women who complete 4 or more of the races are eligible to receive the WDF PARTICIPATION AWARD. For complete, up-to-date information on these events, please check the following website: www.mdrrca.org
