    I'd really like to get a group event together for April. Below are some races/walks that I found through RunningintheUSA.com. If there are any I missed or something that is a favorite of yours, please let me know.

    4/5/2014 Saturday Race the Runways Brunswick, ME
    4/6/2014 Sunday Francis Farm 5k Rehoboth, MA
    4/13/2014 Sunday Totally Awesome 80’s run Manchester, NH
    4/19/2014 Saturday Boston Athletic Assocation 5k Boston, MA*
    4/?/2014 SNA 5k by the Bay Newport, RI
    4/27/2014 Sunday Rumford Lions/Scott Gorham Rumford, RI
    4/27/2014 Sunday Color Me Rad Manchester, NH

    The SNA 5K by the Bay is my home race, but I am always looking for a new race somewhere in New England.

    I'm running the BAA 5k. It's on my birthday. But I think it's closed. I got in through the medley registration anyway.

    Uggh...so bad news. The 80's race is no longer showing up. Not sure if it was cancelled or what.

    Just found this on Facebook:
    [Totally Awesome 80s Run - Manchester NH]: we have cancelled/postponed for now Had some conflicts we need to work through

    :frown:

    Okay, we really need something equally epic as an April replacement...

    For any Downeast Maine members --

    I'm doing:

    Michaud Family Fundraiser 5K (there is a 1 mile fun run as well) on April 5th. Local teacher has a son with cancer :cry:
    Bridge the Gap 5K (there is a 10mile and 1mile option as well) on April 6. It runs over the Penobscot Narrows Bridge :sad:

    The bridge run sounds like fun. What is the date?
