- On Thursday is a Parkway Running Club Highland Hash Fun Run starting and ending at Blanchard's with Baxter Brewing Co. of Lewiston, Maine and food from West Roxburys's Banh Mi Ngon. Participants will meet in the Blanchard's parking lot at 6:30 pm, where they can choose from either a 2.5-mile or 5-mile route based on their skill level. Each route will end back at Blanchard's in the upstairs Tasting Room, with light sandwiches from our local Vietnamese sandwich shop, Banh Mi Ngon, and locally brewed craft beer from Baxter Brewing Company (Lewiston, ME) for 90 minutes following the run. Every runner gets a can of the featured beer at the finish, compliments of WRMS, and Parkway Running Club is generously providing the food at the event. There is no cost for participating in the Highland Hash Spring Fun Run series, which is being sponsored by the Parkway Running Club and West Roxbury Main Streets.
