Tour de Bayou

Tour de Bayou will consist of three free runs this spring, all starting at 6pm. Karbach provides refreshments after runs. The races are free and are open to everyone. They are cross country (not on pavement). Distances vary from three to five miles. Water and sports-drinks are provided. Runners may run any or all stages.

You do not need to be a member of HARRA to participate (but we recommend all BCRR members join HARRA). Did I mention they are free?

Friendly COVID Reminder

Even as the number of cases decreases, the BCRR Board kindly requests that you receive the COVID vaccination to minimize the risk to yourself and others. Wearing a mask is still encouraged. Please maintain social distancing prior to and following club runs.

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 for more information on how to volunteer!
