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!!

Doyles 5M: Roxbury, MA

Well done NACHO Men!
Curt, John, Matt and Jason used today's race as a spring tuneup, both with the running and the beer consumption!

Boston Marathon!

Wow, what a hot day for the marathoners! Upwards of 90 degrees on the course!! Yikes!!

A huge congratulations to Kate Bryant and Theresa Connolly for running in the heat! Both ladies ran for charities (MS Society and Liver Foundation, respectively), and posted very impressive times given the sweltering conditions! Kate flew across the finish in a blazing 4:53:31, and Theresa sneaked in just ahead of her in 4:50:55!

Amazing job ladies, we're all proud of you! :-)

BAA 5K: Boston MA

Congrats to the NACHOs that kicked off Marathon Weekend by racing in the 4th Annual BAA 5K. Close to 6000 people ran in this event that circled Boston Common (finding the one hill in downtown Boston!) and finished at the historic Boston Marathon finish line to screaming crowds! A big thanks to NACHO Cheerleaders Jaime and Brian for getting up early and giving their support, and a HUGE Congrats to Jon for crushing his PR! Must have been the new NACHO singlet!!

Marathon Sports City Run: Cambridge, MA

A big congrats to an awesome group of NACHOs who kicked off the spring road racing season with the Marathon Sports City Run. In it's 26th year (who knew?!), this event featured a hilly course (especially the last mile!) around Fresh Pond. The nice scenery paired with great weather made this an excellent way to welcome in the Spring!

Shiver by the River 10K

Mary and Patrick Boggs have resolved to run one race every month in 2012. They got a good start at the Shiver by the River in Muhlenburg, PA. Both of them ran the 10K. Patrick equaled his 10K PR of 47:04 while Mary smashed her 10K PR by almost 3 minutes, running a 53:22. They both hope the winter months will provide a good base for the upcoming races later this year.
