2021 Spring in the Park Race CANCELED
WE PLAN TO BRING BACK THE POPULAR
"SPRING IN THE PARK WOMEN'S 10k & 5k"
ON SATURDAY, MAY 7th, 2022 8:30am at South Mastick in the Metroparks
​Mark your calendars!

LADIES​,
We all had our fingers-crossed to get back to racing this Spring.  Unfortunately, we are not confident the pandemic situation will have been sufficiently controlled by May to allow us to comfortably hold the type of quality event that we know you would want. Therefore, Cleveland West Road Runners are canceling the 2021 Spring in the Park event.

Pencil in Saturday, May 7th 8:30a.m. on your 2022 calendars and plan to be at South Mastick picnic area in the Cleveland Metroparks for this fun 10k & 5k event.  As the Covid-19 situation abates, we look forward to seeing you on the roads and trails and at future running events. Stay safe everyone.
