MountainOne Sponsors Steel Rail Races| 12:00PM / Thursday, June 06, 2024 | |
NORTH ADAMS, Mass.— MountainOne was excited to be the lead sponsor of Berkshire Running Center's flagship event earlier this month.
This is MountainOne's third year partnering with Berkshire Running Foundation, a nonprofit agency established to support the running community and promote a healthier lifestyle in Western Massachusetts. The weekend's races included Mo Mile on Saturday, May 18, and the MountainOne Steel Rail Races on Sunday, May 19.
The event included the Mo Mile, a free half or full mile run event for children ages 12. All children who participated in the Mo Mile also received a free copy of "How to Climb a Mountain," MountainOne's new storybook, featuring Mo, the MountainOne Spokesgoat.
The MountainOne Steel Rail Races continued on May 19 with an 8K, a 13.1 half marathon and a Boston Qualifier Marathon Course, all starting and finishing at the end of the Ashuwilliticook Rail Trail, 850 Crane Avenue, Pittsfield.
Runners celebrated at the afterparty with music by the Housie Shakers, featuring Noah Cook-Dubin, Colin Ovitsky, Simeon Bittman, and Jonathan Denmark, President & COO of MountainOne Insurance.
"Congratulations to all the runners who participated in this weekend's races," said Jennifer Meehan, VP of Community Engagement at MountainOne. "Your dedication and passion inspire us all. In particular, a highlight for me was witnessing the enthusiasm and energy of the young participants of Mo's Mile, who embody the spirit of our community's future."
