John & Ray Treacy Co-Chair Famous Manchester Race



The fourth Thursday of November is known as Thanksgiving Day across the United States of America and is also the date of the Manchester Road Race, one of the oldest races in the world.

The annual 4.748 mile race draws huge crowds and has been won on the past by Ireland's John Treacy. This year, both John and his brother Ray are co-chairing the event. There is an interesting interview and article on the Hartford Courant website HERE

There were 11282 finishers in 2017.
