This year, Get a RunningStart celebrated women's fitness for it's 12th season in a row. Thanks for your part in making this event such a success!

 We saw almost 200 racers participate- more than half of whom were runners!  Out of the 81 walkers and 94 runners, who came out:
-65 were first-time racers
-45 were part of a mother-daughter pair or family group
-90 raced as part of a team
-175 finished in under 2 hours!

Keep up the great work- have a strong and happy summer and we'll see you next year!

Great New Prizes for 2009!


A few years ago, we asked all of you to help us recruit new racers by encouraging your family, friends and co-workers to run or walk alongside you..

We began recognizing:


  • Mother-Daughter Pairs
  • Family Groups
  • Self-Organized Teams (i.e. John Fuller School, Memorial Hospital, Curves..etc. Last year, the Berlin Hillsiders competed and won the Team division with almost 50 participants!)

So, to thank everyone for your enthusiasm in past years.. and to encourage the same level of participation this year, we have come up with some great new prizes for 2009. Check them out!

  • The fastest Mother-Daughter Pair will receive 1 Hour of Free Sport Massage, courtesy of Darcie Shipman at Blue Mountain Massage in North Conway
  • The largest Family Group will all receive $15 gift certificates to Road ID, the leader in durable, rugged, athletic and fashionable identification gear for athletes in every field
  • The largest Self-Organized Team will win one afternoon or evening of Private Use of the Majestic Theatre at the Conway Cafe on Main Street in Conway, New Hampshire for the entire team to view the film or DVD of their choice

I want to extend a BIG THANK YOU to all of our sponsors who donated these prizes.. and I hope you are all as excited as I am!



Start logging those miles for this week... we've got less than 5 more to go. See you out there!
