2009 University of Maryland Heart Center Baltimore 10-Miler Date Set
for June 20th

Baltimore, MD - Corrigan Sports Enterprises (CSE) announced today the
University of Maryland Heart Center will again be the title sponsor
of the second annual Baltimore 10-Miler. Race day is set for
Saturday, June 20th at 7:30 a.m. at Druid Hill Park near the Maryland
Zoo.



"Get on your running shoes! We are proud to once again sponsor the
Baltimore 10-Miler. Last year's event was a huge success. This is a
great way for us to reach out to the community while promoting the
importance of exercise for heart health," said Alison Brown, Senior
Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at the
University of Maryland Medical Center.



The course will be similar to last year's which ran along two of
Baltimore's lakeside parks, Druid Hill Park and Lake Montebello.



"Baltimore area runners really wanted and needed a race of this
distance. We limited to the race to 2,000 people and were able to
sell out in 30 days. This year we are allowing the event to grow to
3,000 runners and we expect a sell out again. Ten miles seems to be
the perfect distance for this time of year" comments Lee Corrigan,
event organizer.



The event will feature some of the best post race amenities including
cold wash clothes, watermelon slices, complimentary beer for runners,
and a post race celebration with live music taking place at the Zoo.
Registration will cost $50 and will open on February 20, 2009.
