WCRC New Year's Day Hangover Classic: 5k, 10k, Plunge!

The WCRC Hangover Classic features both 10K and 5K road races. Both races start simultaneously from the same line and both finish on the same line (with start and finish chip timing). Both courses are flat and fast – entirely on beachfront roads (no beach running). Given the scenic beachfront location, many participants choose to take a post-race ocean plunge to kick off the New Year. Post-Race Party with music, beer, or and plenty of fun back at the Carousel for one more year!

The weather is unpredictable in January, it’s part of the adventure, but the race will be held regardless of the weather unless the roads are closed by the police (has never happened in the 43-year history of the race). Race entry fees are non-refundable. For more information, email membership@runthecircle.org 

The race does have an entry cap for runner safety and logistics… register early because it may sell out!!

All runners receive 2 beer tickets for Riverwalk Brewing beer, and the first 700 runners are guaranteed long sleeve t-shirts!
