Happy Memorial Day!

For the 6th year in a row, NACHOs braved the muggy conditions to race in the Boston Run to Remember Half Marathon and 5 Mile! There were some awesome performances, with Jess finishing in the top 10 for women in the 5 mile, and Pete and Curt setting new half marathon PRs! Great job everyone!!

Harpoon 5M: Boston, MA

Holy cow, what a day for the NACHOs!
For the second year in a row, the NACHOs made a splash at the Harpoon 5 Miler! With HOT temps the teams took the concrete course with shoes on fire - and finished on the medal stand! NACHO Cheese (co-ed team) finished 2nd out of 186 teams, and NACHO Beer (male team) finished 2nd out of 10 teams! Well done everyone! Everyone walked away with a mug trophy and a 6 pack of beer! After the award ceremony they could drink for free the rest of the afternoon...it was a great day!
So proud of all of our runners, especially Curt who PRed by over a minute! Great job everyone!

Blues Run 5K: Cambridge, MA

Welcome to summer, NACHOs!

The BAEvents Summer Race series has started and the troops of orange have hit the Charles River...and the after-party. With a shorter course this year (5K), this will be a great set of races to work on speedwork and hopefully be the opportunity for some PRs! A breakout performance by Jon, crushing the 6 min/mile pace mark! He finished 19th out of 1172 people, and Dave wasn't far behind! A strong group going into the summer's team events! Great job everyone!!
