Event Information
Two Races and a Howlin' Good Time
NEW DATE - WEDNESDAY - July 31, 2019

Join us for the 11th Annual Running With the Wolves 10K and the 2nd Annual White Fang 5k! Both races start at Kelleher Field in Marlborough and follow a beautiful, car-free, out-and-back course on the scenic Assabet River Rail Trail. Both races feature an exciting stadium finish inside Kelleher Field where your friends and family can cheer you on from the grandstand.

All participants who registered before 7/17/19 will receive a tech race shirt. Everyone gets a finisher's glass and a ticket to our Howl at the Moon After Party with free food and live music!

We have several shirts left for new registrants, we just cannot guarantee size.
These will be given out first come, first served.

There will be a 90 minute time limit on both races. Walkers will be turned around at 45 minutes even if they haven't reached the turnaround point. Walkers are encouraged to participate in the White Fang 5k instead of the 10k in order to best meet the time restriction.
