There will be winners of each race as well as series winners for those who signed up for all 4! Prizes will be awarded to top three male and female runners as well as age group winners for each race and the series as a whole.

Traditionally, these races have been held on weeks opposite of the Freezeroo Series so runners could compete in both and we kept that this year. Sign up for those GRTC races here: https://runsignup.com/Race/NY/Rochester/FreezerooSeriesIndividualRace
