For the Washington Running Report

For the fourth straight year, the Montgomery Country Road Runners Club will team up with the Firebirds Athletic Club to host the popular Firebirds Mile and Fun Run on Wednesday, April 19th at Gaithersburg High School.

Whether you are a beginning runner or a seasoned veteran, this event is for you! This track race for adult and youth runners welcomes runners and walkers of all ages and paces. At last year's event, participants ranged from age 5 to age 86!

Multiple heats ranging from 10 plus minutes per mile to sub-5:00 will be offered. Additionally, a quarter mile fun run will start at 6:45 p.m. for those who are unable to complete the mile distance.

This race is FREE to MCRRC and Gaithersburg Firebirds club members, and just $5 for non-members. Registration is race day only and will be from 6:00-7:00 p.m. The event will be held rain or shine.

Bring the whole family for a fun evening at the track! Many random prizes, generously donated by Fleet Feet Gaithersburg, will be raffled off between heats. All youth athletes (age 18 & under) who complete the mile will be awarded finisher medals.
