Rick’s Run
October 8, 2023 @ 8:00 am - 6:00 pm
Are you ready to take on Rick’s Run – another fantastic race brought to you by Frederick Steeplechasers Running Club.
It’s a great race in loving memory of beloved FSRC runners, including Rick O’ Donnell, Larry Key, and John Godinet. These runners embody the traits we most admire: character, perseverance, kindness, and a profound joy in sharing their love of running.
The race is at a new venue this year – Milkhouse Brewery at Stillpoint Farm located at 8253 Dollyhyde Rd, Mt Airy, MD 21771
Three Events:
5 Mile Trail – The 5 Mile Trail Run is a single loop of the course. Awards in the spirit of the run will be given to the first, second and third place overall male and female finishers in the 5 Mile Run. For Frederick Steeplechasers Running Club members, this event and the first loop of the Challenge events is scored in the FSRC Grand Prix series. If you’re not a Steeplechaser, we invite you to join up and start having fun with us!
4 Hour Challenge – The Challenges are for those who wish to run more than one loop. Within the allotted 4 or 8 hours, run as many approximate 5-mile loops as you’d like, as slow or as fast as you wish. Run 6 laps (or more!) to log an ultra-distance finish.
8 Hour Ultra Challenge – The Challenges are for those who wish to run more than one loop. Within the allotted 4 or 8 hours, run as many approximate 5-mile loops as you’d like, as slow or as fast as you wish. Run 6 laps (or more!) to log an ultra-distance finish.
