Only two chillers left for 2019

Sadly there are only two chillers left for 2019, Temple and New Ipswich. You runners have been doing great job of making these races a great success. So far the weather has mostly cooperated with the first 4 races. March weather could bring some heavier snows. Please continue to be prepared for icy conditions, bringing traction and appropriate gear.

Lastly, you chiller runners are doing a great job bringing non-perishable donations for the local food banks. The food banks appreciate it!

Need Volunteers and Food for Chillers

Thank you for everyone that brought food and donations to our first two chiller races of 2019!

We love it when you bring food to our Chiller races, baked goodies or fruit. We also need volunteers. I could use some help at the finish line, anyone unable to run. If you can help, please contact Ginger at ginger3502@myfairpoint.net.

Don’t forget we collect for the local food bank at each Chiller. Bring canned or dry package foods and we will deliver to the local food bank.

A note from director Jon Dunham:

Dear fans of Spirit of the Marathon and BOSTON,

You can read more about the new film below....

Partenope: Finding A Lost City - A new documentary by director Jon Dunham

Italian style, food and culture are admired around the world. What is lesser known however is that much of what the world knows and admires about Italy comes from its arguably most colorful, complicated and least understood city - Napoli. “O Sole Mio”, cinema icon Sophia Loren and some of Italy’s most delicious cuisine, including pizza, all hail from this most unique southern metropolis.

Over the course of a year immersed in present day neopolitan life and following various individuals who’s stories will guide us through Napoli’s culture and mysterious, ancient past, the film will capture a dynamic picture of this most fascinating city.

Partenope: Finding A Lost City will be shot in ultra high definition 4K vividly capturing Napoli in all of its rugged richness. This is a very personal subject to me as running brought me to Italy and I have spent the better part of the last three years living in and exploring Napoli. If you have an interest in Italy, travel or have enjoyed one of my previous films, I invite you to join me on this production and support independent filmmaking with your donation. Every bit helps!

Thank you for your support.
