FSRC Bay Bridge Consolation 10K Group Run

The 2025 Bay Bridge may have been cancelled, but FSRC has you covered for your "virtual" race with a group run - complete with chip timing (what!?! that's awesome!) because we have amazing volunteers and a community that can't be beat! 

Where: Charm City Run Frederick 925 W Seventh St. Frederick, MD (Thank you Ainsley and Charm City!!) 

Why: Just because our race was cancelled doesn't mean we give up! 

Who: FSRC members with a priority to those who were registered for the 2025 Bay Bridge 10k. If you’re not a current member, it’s only $25 to join the club.

How much: Free for Steeplechaser members

Registration: Please register online before showing up on race morning, or plan on registering from your phone at the race venue. We will not be doing in-person registration. NOTE: the number of participants is capped - we do not recommend waiting until morning of to register.

Bib Pickup: Bib pickup will be held on race morning starting at 8:00am outside of Charm City Run.  

Route: We will be running on roads familiar to most, if not all, participants. This is a fun run and NOT A CLOSED COURSE. Please obey all traffic laws and WAIT at crosswalks. Speaking of cross walks - please use them!! No shortcutting the route at Dill and Fairview (you know who you are!)

Time Limit:  We will allow 2 hours for folks to finish the run before cleaning up the timing equipment. A HUGE thank you to the volunteers who are making this possible.

Breakfast:  Bring a food item to share while we wait for the exciting results. 

Directions:  From Rt. 15 North, turn left on Annandale Rd on the Mount St. Mary’s University campus. Park anywhere in the lot in front of the PAC building. That’s it!

Weather: It’s a winter race therefore the weather could be an issue. Any announcements about possible cancellations due to weather will be made on the Frederick Steeplechasers Facebook Group.  Registered runners will be notified by email.

Volunteer: This was never intended to be a big event.  It’s an especially challenging 10-mile route with minimal support.  However, volunteers are still needed to help with parking, course marshaling, timing, etc. . If you want to avoid the painful hills but still want to participate, VOLUNTEER!   Sign up to volunteer at: runsignup.com/fsrclewisrun/volunteer
