26th Anniversary!

RUN FOR THE ROCK!

BLACK ROCK (Bridgeport, CT)
SCENIC 5K RUN
Sunday, June 8, 2008  - 9:00am
Benefits the Black Rock Community Council

This year we have reconfigured the start/finish locations as well as added a very scenic path along the water. The Norden Club on Seabright Ave is the new location for the registration, post race nosh and awards. The start is right in front and the finish is now just 100 ft away on Beacon. It has a great water view at the end! Meanwhile we have taken you off the road along the sea wall of "St Mary's by the Sea". The course now runs along the sidewalk right next to the harbor. This new addition to your 'scenic run' will be unlike any other race in CT! But the one thing we didn't change was the little town feel of this event...Oh yeh, the "Old Battery Hill" is still there! We had to leave in a challenge somewhere! See you on the 8th and get ready to start your celebration of Black Rock Day!

Please join us in one of the oldest races in Fairfield County. It is a race you may have heard of, but have missed being there. Now that it is a week later, you have an opportunity to experience a piece of the Bridgeport Community you will never forget! The course is flat & scenic through 2 miles, runs along Ash Creek and by the sea wall at St. Mary's. It is an absolutely spectacular view of Black Rock Harbor & the Fayerweather Lighthouse. The 3rd mile starts up "old Battery Rd" for 1/10 mile. It is downhill & absolutely flat to the finish the last half mile. All mile splits are marked.

Certified 5K (3.1 Mile) course through scenic and historic St Mary's By The Sea  - A beautiful part of Bridgeport that YOU NEED to see for yourself.

Same course but new start/finish area near Norden's Club. (Old 3 mile mark).
