Congratulations to all Upper Valley Running Series (UVRS) runners who ran the July 4th Red, White, and Blue 6.2 5K/10K. My understanding is that the event set its record for most participants… go Lebanon Recreation and UVRC!

The next race is on August 25, in Perkinsville VT. It’s the Triple Dam 10K! This inaugural event is directed by UVRC regular Sean Meissner and sounds like a lovely summer run.

So, what is this UVRS that you’re hearing so much about? It’s our club’s series of local road races.

Full-series registration is closed for the year, but you can still participate in the series. As long as you are an up-to-date UVRC member, you can just sign up for each race through the normal race registration (even day-of is OK). You’ll get credit as a series participant.

For 2024, you need to run 7 of the 11 races to get the finisher prize. If you’ve already run a couple of the races, it should be no problem! But even if not, you still have time to get 7 done.

If you don’t want to race or have a family member who doesn’t want to run, consider volunteering. Prizes available. See the March newsletter article about volunteering for details.
