So this Boloco Heartbreak Hill Grand Prix goes right around where I grew up and used to do hill repeats when I was a junior! I think I’ve got to plan a trip back to Boston for this.

The Heartbreak Hill Grand Prix will begin with a 5K/10K running race along a 5K circuit, starting and finishing along Beacon St. in Newton Center and climbing the legendary Heartbreak Hill on Commonwealth Avenue. Both races will start at the same time; 5K runners will run one lap while 10K runners will run two laps.

After the running event, the cyclists will take center stage using the same start/finish line along Beacon St. in Newton Center. The first two fields of cyclists will be racing along the 5.1 mile course from 1:00pm to approximately 2:15pm. The next two fields will race from 2:30pm to approximately 3:45pm. We will have a 200m kid’s race at 4:00pm and the pro men will begin at 4:15pm and finish at approximately 6:15pm.
