Boilermaker

Are you joining the Boilermaker Burger Relay team to help Tad and Polly destroy the competition? Well, other than chowing down on the Boilermaker burgers you may need a drink. How about a Utica Boilermaker Cocktail?

Registration for the 2014 Utica Boilermaker Road Race may be full, but registration is still open for the 3 Mile Boilermaker Walk that takes place on Saturday July 12th!

The weather has been hit and miss lately and I know it's been difficult to run, but now it's time to get moving! If you're getting discouraged don't! You have plenty of time to get in adequate training for the Boilermaker or just for your health.

Better late than never! If you are feeling discouraged about your own Boilermaker training, don't be. Training for the big race takes time and if you start early enough you will be fully prepared. Besides, it's still FREEZING!

The race to the register is now officially over.  The Boilermaker Road Race for 2014 is almost sold out - in record time - just over two hours.

Have you ever considered running the Boilermaker, then decided against it because you were discouraged? Anyone can do it if they set their mind to it!
