Thanks Everyone! Teamwork Makes the Dream Work!
BCRR had a tremendous showing at the Road Kill XC Relay on Saturday. We fielded NINE teams - the most of any club! (Runner-up goes to BARC, with 6 teams, but they also traveled the longest distance to participate 😊).
Thank you to the BCRR Team Coordinators for organizing the teams: Christina Young, Anna Helm, Kathi Mahon, Andrew Young, Steve Hasson, and Mike Mangan.
Thank you and kudos to the runners! (Online
results don't rank division placing, but we've eyeballed the results
and determined placement, subject to clarification.)
