The second annual BLAZIN’
RACE 5K RUN/WALK was held on July 26, 2008, through scenic and beautiful
Bryan, Ohio . All eyes were on the weather the day before the race as
torrential downpours hit the area. The race began with cloudy skies
and temperatures in the upper 70’s. While the morning was rather
humid, the clouds lifted leaving a beautiful sunny morning to run.
Seventy-five participants gathered at the start. The siren sounded,
signaling the start of the BLAZIN’ RACE 5K RUN/WALK. Runners and
walkers quickly cleared the starting line.
The BLAZIN’ RACE 5K RUN/WALK continues to be a tremendous success. The Bryan
Volunteer Fire Department Company #1 enthusiastically hosted a morning of
excitement and good sportsmanship. The BLAZIN’ RACE 5K provided
people from all over the tri-state area a morning of fun and exercise.
The BLAZIN’ RACE 5K crew is looking forward to a brand new year
with bigger and better ideas. The Bryan Volunteer Fire Department Company
#1 is working hard to expand on the 2008 success. Join us again for
fun in running and walking on July 18, 2009.
