History

Established in 2014.

As running enjoys a second boom on Cape Ann, coaches and accomplished runners Jenn Brooks and Layce Alves saw a need for a running program to take runners beyond the initial stage of running to complete a 5k. Cape Ann Distance Project was formed to provide support for runners looking for that next step — to help them push past their former limits and learn how to further improve their times and fitness.
