The York White Rose Run is now a YRRC Event
We are planning on bringing the York White Rose Run 5 miler back in 2018 under new ownership! The board at YRRC refused to let this locally historic event go the way of the dinosuar.
The event will be held on September 15th this year so mark your calendar. More news will be coming in March. Join the club for a registration discount!
Winter Series 2017-2018 Wrapping Up
Hope you all are enjoying the YRRC Winter Series so far this year! With only one race to go we'd like to remind you that other great events are coming up such
as the Leg Up Farm series and the Spartan Half Marathon.
Until then we look forward to seeing you all at the Northeastern 5k on March 3rd! Series awards will be held shortly after the 5k race. Happy running!
