If Mayfair is almost here, that means summer is almost here!
Thanks LV Running Scene and Mayfair!
I last did this in ’06…good course, just not a fast time. Would love one of those this time around.
Glad to see this 5K is back!
Another reason to look forward to Mayfair!
Wow that is a really nice contest. Thanks to the race director.
This sounds like a great way to kick off the holiday weekend!
Mayfair? Already? So much to do before May! But…that will be on the brink of summer, so it would be something to certainly look forward to. Terrific giveaway! :)
Sounds great! count me in!
I ran Mayfair a couple of years ago, when the guy running all the way around the world ran it. He was a lot faster than you would think.
I’d love to run the mayfair 5k! :)
excited to start running races in my hometown, i’ve been running in philly for awhile and just moved back!!! this site has been helpful in helping me find places and races to run.
Sounds like a fun race. Hopefully I’ll be fully recovered from the tough mudder!
Awesome idea! Thanks LV Running Scene and Mayfair!
A great start to the summer 5K events (ie LVRRs). Hopefully will be recovered from the 1/2 marathon in 3 weeks.
It’s been years since I done the Mayfair 5K!
It will most likely be a gorgeous May day for a run! And Cedar Beach Park to boot!
Sounds great…isn’t this first time since 2006 that they’ve had the Mayfair 5K?
Let’s hope this weather holds out.
Run run run, ready to run.
Good luck everyone!
