The April Fools Race in Salisbury, MA is an annual Rite of Spring.

You run four miles on an absolutely flat out-and-back course that lets you cheer for all your running friends you haven’t seen for months.   After the race there’s food, beer, and a raffle at the Winners Circle Bar…

…but before that, of course, we’ve got to run those four miles. So run with me now…

That hat could be trouble in a strong wind!

(I took this photo, and the others below, while running.)

All right! Let’s get to the good stuff–an HD video that puts you right in the middle of this race. Go ahead! Click the ‘Play’ button below. (And be sure to view the video in Full-Screen, so you’ll see the photos in panoramic, high-resolution.)

Were you at this race–and if so, what did you like best about it? What could be improved?

(If you weren’t there, I hope these photos and HD video gave you a taste of the race…and I hope I’ll see you at a race next week.)
