A huge congratulations to our #FishRuns Falmouth Road Race team on their amazing accomplishment of crossing the finish line after a hot and humid 7-mile race from Woods Hole to the Falmouth Heights.

Thank you to all of our race supporters and a special shout out to our top fundraiser (for the second year in a row), Lizzie Lane who raised $3,050, Abby Farrell, our youngest and fastest runner, placing 3rd in her age division with a time of 49:19, and our volunteer team coach Caroline Lane for all of her cheerleading and support. A successful collaborative effort by all!
