As the 2025 racing season is coming to a close, here are a few things going on with the Club.
Mark your calendars now! Our 2025 ADR Awards Banquet will be Saturday Jan. 17, 2026, starting at 6 PM at Andrus Banquet Center, 2259 West Ave., Ashtabula, OH 44004. Details will be provided in mid-December.
The Ashtabula Distance Runners Club is seeking club members who may have an interest to serve on the ADR Board for a two-year term starting in January. If you are interested, please contact Nominating Committee Chair Marty Raffensberger (martindraff@gmail.com) or send an email to express your interest to ashtabuladistancerunners@gmail.com by January 3, 2026.
ADR membership for 2026 will also open in mid-December at some point after the Jingle Bell 3 Miler on Saturday Dec. 6 at 9 AM. Stay tuned for details.
A reminder the ADR Grand Prix Series wraps up with the conclusion of the Jingle Bell 3 Mile.
To qualify for the premium – what it is will be announced at later date – to be awarded at the banquet in January, ADR Club members must have completed at least 6 of the 8 club races. For those who volunteered at one of the Club races, you receive credit for one race.
The ADR Club races were: Shamrock 2 Mile, Memorial Day 5K, Greenway 10K/2 Mile, Indian Trails Adventure Run, Run for Your Life Endurance Challenge, Bridge 2 Bridge 5K, Bridge 2 Bridge Half Marathon, and the upcoming Jingle Bell.
All 2025 results are posted here: https://ashtabuladistancerunners.org/2025-race-schedule/race-results
Here is the list of Club members who have completed ADR Club races, so please check your results for accuracy. Contact a board member with any discrepancies. Anyone with 6 or more has already qualified for the premium. Anyone who has 5 at this point will qualify by completing the Jingle Bell 3 Miler. In other words, if you have 5 now and don’t complete the Jingle Bell race, you don’t qualify for the premium.

Sincerely,
The Ashtabula Distance Runners Club Board of Directors
