UPDATE 6/12: WE ARE POSTPONING THE JUNE 13 RUN DUE TO HIGH WINDS & HEAVY RAIN IN THE FORECAST. WE WILL POST A NEW DATE ONCE IT IS SET.

The Parkway Running Club and West Roxbury Main Streets are back with a new series of fun runs this Spring across West Roxbury. Take the opportunity to be healthy, meet your neighbors and support our local restaurants while you enjoy some great food and local craft beers.

The Spring Fun Run series feature four events in May and June, and are scheduled around the major area races (including the James Joyce 10K in Dedham on April 28, the Harpoon 5-Miler on May 19 and the Corrib 5K on June 2). The remaining schedule is (subject to change):

-Thursday, June 13: 6:30 pm at Blanchard's West Roxbury with Baxter Brewing Co. (Lewiston, ME) and Banh Mi Ngon from Restaurant Row!

-Saturday, June 22: 2 pm at TBD

So join us on June 13 as we return to Blanchard's for another Thursday night run (May 9 with Blue Hills & Los Amigos was the biggest crowd of our five runs to date!). Participants will meet in the Blanchard's parking lot at 6:30 pm, where they can choose from either a 2.5-mile or 5 mile route based on their skill level. Each route will end back at Blanchard's in the upstairs Tasting Room, with light sandwiches from our new local Vietnamese sandwich shop, Banh Mi Ngon, and locally brewed craft beer from Baxter Brewing Company (Lewiston, ME) for 90 minutes following the run. Every runner gets a can of the featured beer at the finish, compliments of WRMS, and Parkway Running Club is generously providing the food at the event.

There is no cost for participating in the Highland Hash Spring Fun Run series, which is being sponsored by the Parkway Running Club and West Roxbury Main Streets to promote healthy living and neighborhood businesses in West Roxbury.

**We will, however, be asking all Fun Runners to make a voluntary suggested donation of $5, all of which West Roxbury Main Streets and the Parkway Running Club wiill give directly to the OneFund Boston to help victims of the attack on the 2013 Boston Marathon. Parkway Running Club has raised over $1000 to date from individual contributions and the Fun Run series. To contribute now, please visit onefundboston.org.**

Check back here and on the WRMS Facebook events page for updates to the series.

Be sure to visit West Roxbury Main Streets at wrms.org to learn about all of our events throughout the year, and do the same for the Parkway Running Club at parkwayrunningclub.org!

Eat local, drink local, and keep running!
