RSVP for the BCRR Supported -
2021 Chevron Houston Marathon & Aramco Half Marathon
The BCRR Board is in the midst of planning, however we need a head count! An RSVP is required to participate in the event to ensure we have enough participation to make this event happen.
Race Day begins at 6:30AM, Sunday, January 17th with a staggered start according to paces to accommodate social distancing. The suggested course will be a 6 mile loop through the Montrose/Rice area with access to Braes Bayou to add additional distance. Water and Gatorade will be available at rest stops along the route. A bathroom will be available at the start/6 mile point.
BCRR Members are allowed to sponsor 1 non-member guest to participate in the event. Please fill out a separate RSVP for the guest.

2020 HARRA Fall Series
The Fall series of Marathon Warm-Up races has begun. Although most of the races are virtual, HARRA will still be awarding Ironfoot awards to everyone that completes the Fall series. HARRA will also be calculating points for Club awards. Club awards are calculated per participation, no times. Since the races are virtual (except for Kia 30K in Sugarland), there will be no team competition.
