Second Annual
Riverglen Challenge
Crossing Bridges - Spanning Generations
Courses
The race will be USA Track and Field sanctioned and timed by Bay State Race Services.. Walkers are welcome on all three courses with the shorter two being relatively flat.
The longer 5.5-mile run or walk has several hills with a 350-foot gain in elevation. It starts between the Senior Center and Riverglen House and proceeds 1/4 mile along the Riverwalk path, turns onto Riverside Drive for 1/2 mile and then onto Industrial Park Drive for 2.2 miles.
At Mt. Eustis Road the course turns left and begins a steep climb for .7 mile along a scenic road and the shoulder of the mountain. The course is rolling for 1/2 mile before the steep downhill section. At the bottom of Mt. Eustis Road the course turns onto Bronson Street, through a small neighborhood then briefly onto South Street before crossing over the suspension bridge. The bridge is a sturdy, cable-steel design that will sway a little as you pass so mind your stride. After the bridge the course turns right onto Saranac and Mill Streets before crossing the covered footbridge and the finish at the Senior Center and Riverglen House.
