The DMSE Sports Classic (formerly Runner's World Classic) will be back at Merrimack College this summer for a weekend of running. Runners can choose to do the 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon... or all three! The DSC will also feature a Kid's Race and the entertaining and inspirational Celebrity Mile event on Saturday.
Founded by and managed by Dave McGillivray Sports Enterprises, there’s a race for runners of all levels and for the entire family. The races feature a start and finish on the beautiful campus of Merrimack College. Our undulating courses will keep you honest through historic downtown Andover, past the famous grounds of Andover Phillips Academy, and through a tree-lined, shaded residential community, which sits on the banks of the Merrimack River, near Lake Cochichewick and the Shawsheen River, approximately 24 miles from Boston. At the end of each run there will be plenty of post-race refreshments, and live music & beer at the conclusion of the Half Marathon on Sunday!
