The Race for Ricey honored Jim Rice, a local fallen firefighter. He was killed in a fire 2 days before Christmas. All of the money raised from the event went directly to his wife and three young children.
It was pouring rain...and still tons...244 to be exact.. of people turned out! It was an out and back course so I got the see the fast people and all of my friends that ran too. There were lots of local fire departments there which made me smile. They also had a kids one mile fun walk to the fire station and back. Lots of kids toughed it out in the pouring rain. Great community event! They had awesome raffles and great shirts. I love a good race shirt...and a finishing time of 31:51! ;)
