USATF-New England All Terrain Runner
All Terrain Runner (ATR) is a new official series comprising races of varying distances, seasons and surfaces. The series begins with a trail race (the New England trail championships), before competitors race on the track, mountains and roads, closing with a cross country event in the fall.
The complete 2014 ATR series includes:
- May 4 – Trail: Sleepy Hollow 10k
- May 5-July 20 – Track: 5000 meters
USATF-NE members may submit their own 5000 meter result from any USATF sanctioned track meet through our web form during this time frame. A competitor may complete several outdoor 5000 meter races. However only the fastest time will count in the final scoring.
