14th Annual

BOSTON BLOWOUT

If you're prepping for Boston (or any other spring marathon)
and want to do a long run with some company and comfort, this is it.
We've found some of the flattest, most scenic roads around lower Fairfield
and mapped out a cloverleaf course that's about as easy as 30 km can be.
Records: Jon French 1:42:05, Dana Parrot 1:59:05.
Masters: Joe Puopolo 1:49:11, Mary Chute 2:02:08
NOTE: The finish line will remain open until 3:06:24 (10 min. pace).
Those planning to run slower please start early - course maps available.
Starts and finishes at the Scandinavian Club on South Pine Creek Road (past the par 3 golf course).
I-95 to exit 21, south to Rt. 1, right to South Pine Creek Rd. (Sunoco and Mobil stations), left for one mile
Please park in the gravel lot at the corner of Old Dam Rd. and walk to the club.
Check-in starting 6:30 a.m. $20 post entry if 150 runner limit hasn't been reached.

Not up for the full 30? Once again, we'll offer a single-loop "Half Blowout" 15 km option.
And if you want to go fast and huff and puff, we're adding a fast 5 km "Little Puff" - same basic course as the Holiday Run for Kids

Please bring exact change or check payable to "Blowout".
We'll have water, energy gels, electrolyte drinks & energy bars, and food afterward.
Mile & 5 km splits marked. Times for all, some out of the ordinary awards & stuff.
Just kick in $17 to defray the costs, fill out the form and send to:
