WELCOME TO THE RACE TO THE ROW

The Somerville Road Runners are proud to present the third annual Race to the Row 5K in Assembly Square in our hometown of Somerville, MA. It's a run, walk and wheelchair race through Assembly Square and along the Mystic River. The race is open to runners, teams and families of all ages and abilities, ending with a fun-filled post-race party with food, drinks and beer served from the local restaurants and businesses! All proceeds will benefit East Somerville Main Streets as well as Somerville TrackPAC.

But before the 5K, we also have a couple other events. We're going to have our first annual Fast Mile Race, a 1 mile loop race in Assembly Row open to all ages. Runners in the mile must be able to complete the distance in 10 minutes or less. There in no online registration for this race. It's only $5 and you sign up the day of the race. There will also be a free 1/8 mile Kid's Fun Run (age 9 and under) before the race with all kids getting a medal!

The first 300 registrants to the 5K are guaranteed to receive cool swag, and all paid 5K registrants will get free food, drinks and dessert afterward! All 5K racers and voluinteers can participate in the post-race festivities. Others can pay $10 to be able to eat and drink along with them. There will be an awards ceremony following the race for top finishers in Mens, Womens and Wheelchair divisions as well as team awards.
