Lil' Rhody Runaround 8M: Charlestown, RI

The Boston/Cambridge NACHOs and the Mid Atlantic NACHOs met in the middle (kinda) in Rhode Island for the 19th running of the Lil’ Rhody Runaround in Burlingame State Park. This CHALLENGING 8M trail run boasts a course which requires runners to cross streams, avoid roots and scale a rock face as they circumnavigate Watchaug pond. It was tough to pick out the NACHOs from the 298 runners as orange attire was required due to hunting season being in full effect. No one was shot, or broke and ankle or blew out a knee...so we call it a successful event! Highlights include Brent having a great race shaving 7 minutes off of his time from last year, Mary completing her longest race ever, and Amelia having a blast playing in the leaves! After the run all NACHOs returned to Dave & Cathy’s house for some post-race beef stew! Great day all around! Check out the photos!
