Event Information
Join us for the 13th Annual Running with the Wolves 10K and the 4th Annual White Fang 5k!
Both races start at Kelleher Field in Marlborough and follow a beautiful, car-free, out-and-back course on the scenic Assabet River Rail Trail. Both races feature an exciting stadium finish inside Kelleher Field where your friends and family can cheer you on from the grandstand.
All participants who register before 6/20/2023 will receive a tech race shirt in their chosen size. We are also planning on some awesome swag!
Participant Cap: Due to capacity limitations of the Assabet River Rail Trail, the combined capacity for the 5k and 10k is 550 participants. Register early! The races can sell out due to the capacity limits of the Assabet River Rail Trail.
Start & Finish Location: Kelleher Field, 72 Jefferson St, Marlborough, MA
Race Courses: Participants of both the 5k and 10k races will enjoy the beautiful, car-free Assabet River Rail Trail. The White Fang 5k follows the same car-free course as the 10k, with an earlier turnaround.
Entry Fees for Both Races: $35 for adults; students 18 and under are discounted $10.
Awards: Top overall male & female finishers, and top male & female finishers of each age group - (18 and under), (19-29), (30-39), (40-49), (50-59), (60+)
Team/Corporate Challenge: Trophy to the company or team with the most runners participating in the races.
Amenities: Water stations, restrooms, post-race refreshments, tech race t-shirts, and some super swag!
Cancellation Policy: If we are forced to cancel or reschedule the races due to weather or other unforeseen event, all registration fees from runners who cannot participate will be donated to local charities. There will be no refunds.
Time Limit: There will be a 90-minute time limit on both races. Walkers will be turned around at 45 minutes even if they haven't reached the turnaround point. Walkers are encouraged to participate in the White Fang 5k instead of the 10k in order to best meet the time restriction.
Sponsorship Opportunities: Do you want to talk to hundreds of runners and walkers in Central MA? Here's your chance! Sponsorship opportunities range from $100 to $2500 with different levels of runner interaction and SWAG. Contact the Race Director today for more information.
