Volunteer Request:

For the last 10 years, BCRR has managed the Darling Dash, a local 5K/10K. Mike Mangan and his crew have led the management crew, however it is time to pass the torch. BCRR is looking for a new race manager. MIke will show you the ropes, and the Board will also be available for support. Please email houstonbcrr@gmail.com for more details.

Sunday NEEDS Hydration!

­

Who likes water during the Sunday long runs? Especially in the summer! Our Sunday morning hydration team could use a little more help as people go on vacation. Please contact Loris - Loris0105@yahoo.com for more information on how to volunteer!
