Arny Johnson Update
The endless construction at Rock Cut State Park is again creating problems with the races. The park management has let us know that they will NOT be issuing any activity permits for the park before June of 2020 and that no doubt is subject to change depending on the construction progress in the park.
Due to the park issues Arny Johnson will be 5k & 1 mile races this year and return to the 10 miler in 2021. However to make things fun for all a "Team" competition is happening for the 5k Arny race this year. You can form the team, takes minimum of 4, (up to 7) in any of the five divisions: Open Female, Open Male, Open Mixed/CoEd, Open Masters and Corporate. You create the team as you register or join a team if friend(s) have already created one. No extra cost for a team just extra fun. If your company would like to sponsor a team just contact via email at admin@rockfordroadrunners.org

Heritage race photos circa 1985
RRR was given a handful of photos from what we believe to be the 1985 Heritage run. Some of the youngsters would now likely be nearing their masters age groups are you one of them?
Thank you to RRR member Gonzalo Gomez for not only taking and sharing.
