Shawn’s Summer Biathlon Series

November 2024 and January 2025

We will continue running and swimming this year over the summer with our social Shawn’s Summer Series.
As always, all members, non-members and visitors most welcome.

A MRR Coordinator will be in attendance to coordinate each run. They will just need you to record your attendance.

Everyone welcome with gold coin donation for refreshments afterwards. Children 12 years and under need an attending adult. Half and full distance courses always available. Please bring a water bottle. All runs are social, untimed and at your own pace.[/vc_column_text]
