Let's See Your Best Green!

It's St. Patrick's Day and shout out to all you runners that have been around long enough to remember the Cherokee Road Runners Leprechaun Run. Always held on the afternoon of St. Patrick's Day, even when it fell on the Rodes City Run 10k Day. And then awards and beers at Dedden's Highland Fling. Those were the days!

Post your best running Runnin' of the Green photos in the comments and our favorite will win an RCR prize!

We are looking for new River City Races team members, more than a simple volunteer. We will train you to do registration, set up and tear down, timing and other jobs as they come up. Positions require 1-2 hours work on race day (with the exception of Downtown Doubler which will be about 5-6 hours but we pay double). Must be able to work all or most of the races on our calendar, generally need to be there an hour before race starts and we are usually wrapped up within a half hour of the last finisher.

Interested? Send an email to [email protected]
