About
The Winner’s Circle Running Club’s New Year’s Day Hangover Classic 10K and 5K Road Races will be run on Monday, January 1, 2024, at 11:30 am from the Carousel Lounge at Salisbury Beach, MA. Proceeds to benefit the charitable activities and youth and adult running programs of the Winner’s Circle Running Club.
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 at the Carousel Lounge at Salisbury Beach, MA.
Entry fees are $35.00 from October 15th to December 23rd, $40.00 after December 23rd. Long Sleeve T-shirts are available to the first 600 who register. Early number/shirt pickup and late registration will be held at the Winner's Circle Sports Bar, 211 Elm Street (Rte 110), Salisbury, MA on Sunday afternoon, December 31 from 12:00pm to 3:00pm OR at Marathon Sports in Newburyport on Saturday, December 30 from 12:00pm to 2:00pm. Race day number/shirt pickup and late registration will also be available starting at 9:30 AM on Monday, January 1 at the Carousel Lounge at Salisbury Beach, MA.
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 42-year history of the race). Race entry fees are non-refundable. For more information, email [email protected]
The race does have an entry cap for runner safety and logistics… register early because it may sell out!!
