Volunteering
Baltimore Women's Classic 5K
Year after year the NCR Trails Snails: lead on the steering committee, volunteer, run, coach, show up in droves on race day to support the 2nd oldest consecutively run Woman's race in America.
The Baltimore Women's Classic 5K this year will be held on June 24, 2012.
This race encourages women to lead a lifestyle that includes fitness, and to take charge of their health. All proceeds go to funding research for gynecological cancer as well as many other women's health initiatives.
Trail Cleanup
The NCR Trail Snails continue to participate in the NCR Adopt-A-Mile trail cleanup program and are the proud 'parents' of Mile 7-8 (for newcomers and those less familiar with the trail, Mile 7-8 is the 'Monkton' section... that spot we are all so happy to see during the long runs!). The Gunpowder State Park folks request only that we clean up our section once a quarter. However we are such a civic-minded group and also recognize that several GU packs can pile up in three months time, we try to get few folks out every month to do some clean up.
Anyone who is interested in signing up for a month, please email Jeanne Pinto. Since we all benefit from the beauty and convenience that the trail offers, we hope you'll join us in this effort. This may also help to keep us in good standing with Gunpowder State Park as we continue to grow in number and usage of the trail. The park staff would like us to fill in a form with the amount of trash picked up so they can monitor park cleanliness.
NCR Trail Marathon
The BRRC's NCR Trail
Marathon & Relay has developed the reputation as one of the
best little marathons on the East Coast.
Other Races
