There are awards for the first Female and Male in the Open division, the 40+ division, the 50+ division and the 60+ division. There is also a $50 cash prize for each of these winners. Runners who win these awards will be separated from the age group awards for the Cudahy Classic. All runners who register for the Cudahy Classic Ten-Mile event will be eligible for the RRCA awards.
Also this year we are celebrating the 30th wedding anniversary of the Pete and Mary Wysocki who were married at this race in 1996.
