5K races are held every week.  Entry is $2 for CMS members.  A whopping $4 for non-members.  No entry forms.  No applications.  No T-Shirts. No awards.  No trophies.  No ribbons. Just show up, sign up, pay up, run your tootsies off. Race times are recorded. Results are posted on the CMS website and in the CMS printed Newsletter.    Doughnuts, Polar soda, and water available after the runs. Races are mostly low-key, although the occasional burner shows up and smokes the field. So, be prepared!  Races are open to everybody: fast, slow, half-slow, half-fast, all races, creeds, and whatever.  Club members, non-club members. Runners, walkers, crawlers.  Humorous and dour. Happy and sad.  Big, tall, and in-between.  Yankee fans.  Under-sized forwards with unstoppable left-handed hook shots.  Even people from New Jersey.  5Ks are held at two locations through the year:   In the warm months (April thru September, Daylight Savings Time) we run Wednesday evenings, 6:30 PM (6PM in the darker days)  at Rogers Field, in Devens which is just off Route 2, exit 37B. Park behind the buildings at Vicksburg Square, meet at the gazebo across Rogers Field.  Contact: CMS, Box 60002, Worcester, MA 01606-0002, CMS Telephone (508) 767-7468.  In the cold months, (October to April, Standard Time) we run at Worcester State College, Chandler Street, Worcester on Saturday mornings, 9AM. Register in the gymnasium lobby. The Nantasket Beach Hotel is sponsoring several prizes of weekend and mid-week getaways, available to runners and volunteers in the 5K series. Please click here for details.
