Question:Does anyone know of any upcoming 10K's or 1/2 marathons anywhere around
the Boston area? I am interested in trying to move up from the 5K races,
and I am looking for some races in the area to give it a try.

They have lots of races listed. You can even find entry forms for some
races.
The New Bedford 1/2 Marathon is on March 17th. Call (508)998-5068 for
info. It's not exactly boston area but it's a great race with great
shirts!
Do you know of any other 1/2 marathons or 10K's in
the April or May timeframe?
There is also a 10-miler in Sharon this Sunday which should be a good
race. It's the rebirth of the Old Fashioned Ten Miler which had been run
for many years by the Sharon Road Runners. Good size field expected. Call
339-3008 for details and directions.
There is the St. Patrick's Road Ract on March 16 in Holyoke (413)
534-3301, the Eastern Mass Championship on March 25 in Needham (Andrew
blume, 11 Synnyside Ave, Wellesly Ma 02181), and the Groton Road Race
on April 28 (508) 448-3277.
