 First Race of the Season Complete: Richmond Road Race Triumphs!

Traditionally, the Richmond Road Race has been synonymous with daunting conditions – think windy, blustery snow and less-than-ideal footing. It's these very elements that add a layer of adventure and excitement to the event. However, this year turned the tables with surprisingly cooperative weather, blessing our runners with great conditions for a January race. This twist of fate allowed participants to focus more on their performance and less on battling the elements.

Celebrating the Victories

The Spirit of the Race

The Richmond Road Race is more than just a competition; it's a celebration of community, resilience, and the joy of running. The event's unique challenges, like the unpredictability of weather and the train stoppages, add a layer of excitement and unpredictability that test the mettle of every participant. Yet, year after year, runners come back, eager to face these challenges head-on.

Congratulations to all that raced.
