Neither rain, nor wind, nor cold could keep these determined NACHOs from racing 13.1 miles through the city streets of Boston and Cambridge! Congrats to the NACHOs who completed this course in less than ideal conditions! Word got back from spectators that there was a large NACHO presence at this event - well done!
Freedom Run 5K, Cambridge MA
Bring on the beer drinking!! NACHO did not disappoint in this component of the event, and definitely celebrated at the post race party! Leading up to the party, there were some great performances as well. A special kayak challenge kicked off the event, with Brian and Brad representing NACHO in the 0.75 mile Charles River kayak race. The times from this event were added to their 5K times for the awarding of the Glen Doherty Cup. Brian finished 3rd in the challenge and Brad was 17th, finishing the kayak race in 9:28 and 10:23, respectively. This kayak race was also the debut of the NACHO Flag, something that I bet we'll see a lot of in the future! (Big thanks to Kevin for running the 5K race with the flag!)
Once the kayak portion was done, it was time to race! Joined by a large group of NACHOs, the team had a great showing, placing 4th out of 33 teams! Well done everyone!! Although the team missed out on the trophies for FASTEST runners (top 3 teams were honored), the group did walk away with some hardware - Derek, Brian and Brad were crowed "men's costume winners" with their outfits that definitely channeled the theme of the day: FREEDOM! More pictures from the day can be found here.
