The final USATF-NE Race Walk Grand Prix Race will be the USATF-CT 10000m RW Championship on Sunday, November 1st in Clinton, CT, at the Peters Recreational Complex Track.
The 10000m Open/Youth/Masters (all Associations welcome) will start at 10:00am. Prior to the main event at 9:30 a.m. there will be a 1 Mile Fun Walk, open to any level of experience in racewalking.

Pepperell Rail 8K/4K Race, Pepperell, MA—The race starts at 10am, rain or shine, behind the Pepperell Braiding Company on Lowell Street.
It’s a relatively flat, out-and-back course (once for the non-judged 4K race, twice for the 8K GP race), with no street intersections.
Parking is available at the Pepperell Braiding Company at 22 Lowell Street, facing the building. Sign up will be at the Harriman’s condo across the street, at 38 Tarbell Street (Unit 3D) by the garage with the orange Honda Element.
No entry fee, but bring something for the pot luck afterwards!
Also, we need a few volunteers at the start/finish line to help record times.
