Against the Tide multi-sport event

Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition (MBCC) will be holding its annual, statewide Against the Tide multi-sport event again in 2019. Against the Tide offers something for all outdoor enthusiasts. Participants can enjoy pristine beaches and water locales for the half-mile paddleboard, competitive one-mile swim, one-mile and half-mile recreational swims, and two-mile kayak events.  The USATF certified 5K and 10K runs and 3-mile fitness walk route boast a paved tree-lined rolling course. All ages and abilities are welcome to choose from up to four of these exciting activities. The event also offers an Aquathon component, with a competitive one-mile swim and 5K or 10K run.  New to the Hopkinton event this year is a beach kids fun run! 
Participants may register as an individual or as part of a team. Registration is $40 per adult per event activity, $25 per student per event activity, and $10 for the kids fun run for ages 10 and older. Children under 10 may participate in any event free of charge.  Participants are encouraged to fundraise beyond these suggested minimums, as all proceeds support Massachusetts Breast Cancer Coalition's unique goal towards breast cancer prevention. Prizes will be awarded to the fastest swim, run, and Aquathon athletes, top age-group finishers, and top fundraisers.
MBCC will be honoring firefighters at all of their 2019 athletic fundraisers.  MBCC invites firefighters and their families to walk as our guests at the Against the Tide events.  If you are a firefighter or a family member and wish to attend, please email [email protected] or call 1-800-649-6222 to register.
The statewide Metro-Boston Against the Tide will be held for the 27th year at DCR's Hopkinton State Park on Saturday, June 15, 2019, starting at 8:00 am and end at 12:00 noon. Please visit www.mbcc.org/swim or call 617-376-6222 for more information and to register.
