This is an indoor, non-competitive, un-timed event for kids ages 5-14.  Kids will swim in the pool, navigate through an obstacle course and finish with a fun run on the tennis courts. And of course there is a post race party to enjoy!

MAC has a passionate commitment to providing activities to all ages and is a business that respects its existence in Manchester and on Cape Ann both physically and in relation to the lifestyles of these communities.  The club pursues opportunities to be active in the influencing the increasing rate of obesity through enrichment programs, community events, cooperation with local medical providers and through the inherent nature of the opportunities they offer.  Where possible MAC is eager to pursue opportunities to make a greater impact on the community it serves.

Spin for Hope is a three hour indoor cycling event for a great cause- the American Cancer Society’s fight against cancer. And HillTop is going to join in on stationary trainers and treadmills.

Register as an individual and divide your time between cycling and running for the entire three hours, or form a team and take turns cycling and running, or just running.  Marnie and Nan plan to ride for two hours and run for one!  Come join us!

Individuals registering for the entire three hours should strive to raise at least $100 per hour.  Those registering as part of a team should strive to raise $300 as a team. 

Of course, if you are unable to participate this year, please show your support with a donation to our HillTop Team.
