3CRP Adds 3 Races To Schedule 3CRP is adding 3 new races to our 2008 schedule: The Feel Good Farm Trail Races in July (date TDB) in Lydenboro, NH will be full 3CRP productions. We will be scouting the trails in next weekend, but are planning on 2 distance of approximately 7K and 14K. The 7K will be a relatively flat and easy race, while the 14K will run the 7K loop and then head out for a very tough and hilly 7K more. The other 2 new races will be cooperative efforts by the race organizers and 3CRP. They are the Windham Flat & Fast 5K in Windham, NH on June 1 and the Spring Chicken Run 5K on June 15 in Nashua, NH.
3CRP Loses Doug Flutie 5K Despite helping the Doug Flutie Foundation raise over $48,000 in 2007 on their Eastern Bank Doug Flutie Jr 5K Road Race, we will not be working on their 2008 race as they hired a different race production firm this year. 3CRP was a subcontractor on the race in 2007 and the prime contractor did not win the bid to produce this year's race. While not certain, we believe a combination of a power glitch last year that delayed the posting of the complete results and a much lower bid in 2008 by one of their competitors was the cause. We wish the Doug Flutie Jr Foundation the best of luck on their 2008 race and are confident that all their runners will enjoy the great course that 3CRP designed for them in 2007.
Our Newest Sponsor!!! Providing gift certifictaes for personal coaching for our Artesani Park 5K and the Luv2Run Boston 5K Race Series, as well as volunteers for the Artesani Park 5K.

Up With Souhegan Valley Lions Club On The

The Peanut Butter Chip Chase has a long history in Southern New Hampshire, but it's numbers have dropped from 175+ in the 90's and early 2000's down to an average of 115 over the past 3 years.

We are also close to signing a contract to produce a race next Spring for a Triple A sports franchise in the area, and have been contacted by several other groups looking for Professional Race Production Services.

3CRP Hits The Big Time As Rival Race Director Talks Smack!!! 3C Race Productions is having an impact on the New England Racing Scene beyond just putting on high-quality races with lots of great stuff from our numerous sponsors --- a rival race director seems to be threatened by our presence in the Boston area: go to http://www.coolrunning.com/results/07/ma/May17_Squeez_set1.shtml and http://www.coolrunning.com/results/07/ma/Jun7_GoodDo_set1.shtml. (All kidding aside, this RD has worked hard for more than a dozen years building up his skills and expertise and puts on some great races. I just can't understand why he feels so threatened by 3CRP; there are more than enough runners out there to fill all the quality events.)

USATF New England
Selects Moose On The Loose 10 Miler For Race #1 in USATF New England has selected the Moose On The Loose 10 Mile Trail Relay as race #1 in the Inaugural USATF New England Cross Country Gran Prix. This should bring the relay's numbers back up to year #1 of the Moose On The Loose, when it was just a relay and not an individual race as well. The Moose on The Loose 10 Mile individual Trail Race will still serve as one of the races in the New Hampshire Gran Prix, so both the Relay and the individual race will have very strong fields in 2007.
