The Fudgcicle series will begin its 49th year! Welcome to 2024!
As you already know this is a no frills run – no water stops – just pure running. And you do not need to be a GLRR member to run.
2024 Fudge Dates: Saturdays, 8 AM (7:50AM early start – suggested for runners who require over 45 min. to run the course), Jan. 6, 13, 20, 27, Feb. 3, 10, 17, 24.
The last date, Feb. 24, is the TWO-SOME Run, where you pair up with someone else, and your combined times are totaled for ranking.
Fudge Place: Tewksbury Memorial High School, 320 Pleasant St, Tewksbury, MA
