He lives in scenic, hilly Middletown where runners will eat hills for breakfast and then feast on warm breakfast and steaming coffee in a welcoming home.

Lewis Memorial 10-Miler
2020-01-11 08:30 - 11:00 | Eastview Club House, 7501 Oakmont Drive, Frederick, MD
*** FSRC Grand Prix Event #1 ***
This is a prediction race, so participants may not wear watches. Leave ’em in your car, your gym bag or at home. The winner is the runner who runs closest to their predicted time.
FSRC Grand Prix results will be based on actual finish time.

Where: Eastview Clubhouse on Oakmont Drive in Frederick
Why: Because you love the challenge of running wicked hills in freezing weather (it builds character)
How much: Free for Steeplechaser members, $10 for non-members. Pre-registration is available online and registration is available on-site race morning. But please preregister if you can to help save volunteer effort on race day. If you’re not a club member, you can join on race day for $20 to enjoy many other benefits throughout the year. Or better yet, join/renew online before race day.
Online Registration: https://runsignup.com/fsrclewisrun
What else: The Lewis Run is the early season race that we love to hate. Prizes go to the closest predicted time and front runners receive our admiration and a hearty slap on the back. The course is paved but REALLY HILLY! In order to do awards in a timely fashion and get the volunteers out of the cold, there is a 2:30 time limit for this event. That equates to a fairly generous 15 min/mile, but it’s not an event for walkers.
Breakfast: Bring a food item to share.
Directions: From Rt. 40 (West Patrick Street in Frederick), turn onto Waverly Drive by the Frederick Town Mall. Follow speed bumps to Shookstown Road. Go left and begin to climb. Watch for Lakeview Drive on the left, but don’t turn on it. Make the next left onto Oakmont Drive (it’s hard to see). Go down a steep hill to a lake with a clubhouse on the left. That’s it!
Questions: Contact Mark Lawrence, your low-key race director. mark.lawrence@steeplechasers.org
Any announcements about possible cancellations due to weather will be made on the Frederick Steeplechasers Facebook Group.
Carpool if you can – parking can get tight.

Candy Cane Dash 5K/1K
2019-12-07 08:00 - 10:30 | Baker Park, 121 N. Bentz St, Frederick, MD
The 2019 Candy Cane Dash 5k/1k is the perfect way for you and the entire family to kick-off your holiday season!
The 2019 running of the Candy Cane Dash will include a couple of twists on the “usual” Baker Park 5K route. Imagine yourself running through the Baker Park covered bridge, and unlike any other Baker Park 5k, you’ll be finishing in all of your glory in front of the bandshell! The course will be USATF certified by race day.
The fun atmosphere of the Candy Cane Dash draws speedsters (3-deep, 10-year age group awards) and meanderers alike. Plenty of costumed participants help everyone get into the Holiday Spirit, but what keeps the cheery masses coming back (and staying on Santa’s “nice” list) are our great elves (volunteers), the amazing energy of 300+ young GOTR program participants-many of whom will be running their first 5k, awesome shirts, and finisher’s medals (5k AND 1k!) that double as Christmas ornaments. That everyone gets a candy cane upon finishing doesn’t hurt either! Have a family of 4-6 that want to run the 5K? Email bill@gotrmidmd.org for details on family pricing. (Must be immediate family residing at the same address to qualify.)
The pre-race celebration starts at 0700. 1K starts at 0830. Wheelchair 5K start is at 0855. The 5K run starts at 0900.
The Candy Cane Dash benefits Girls on the Run of Mid & Western Maryland. www.gotrmidmd.org
