Race Information
The Women's Day Races, for most of its 45+ year history, featured two different race events - a 2.1 miler and a longer race, either a 10k or a 5-miler. Recently, the event dropped the 2nd women-only event in favor of a single 5k, and added more inclusive events like the Community 5k and kid-only events. This page describes the Women-only "short" event, which was 2.1 miles originally, and is currently 3.1 (5k). All of that said, the Women's Day 5k is the oldest women-only running event in the country. It was first held in 1978 in Stockbridge, and after several moves in the early years, settled on BCC as its home course in the mid 1980's. The race has always been held on or around Mother's Day.
