Lace ‘em up, make a friend
Weddings, birthdays, children’s births, family member’s deaths – the running group out of Runner’s Alley in Concord is there for it all. When Brigitte Gray, the store manager, got married in 2021, members of the running group were there. A running friend, whose family is from England, now ce...
Poem: Vunerable
I do nothing but sit with arms hanging limp, shoulders slumped, eyes teary, mouth dry, unable to concentrate on anything but the worst moments, this loose posture, unnatural stillness opens me to the reality of my sorrow unconnected to life stuck on pause in need of a nudge an adrenalin spike draw i...
The original boys of summer
While it took to tennis and golf in warm weather recreation, Concord, not unlike the rest of the country, loved its baseball too; for watching as well as participating. The Sunset League got going in 1909 with four teams – the Haymakers, Old Timers, Sluggers and the White Parks – playing at Whit...

Pedal on the metal
One of the things you won’t find on most rail trails are rails. Usually the tracks get pulled up after the local train company abandons a corridor before the state makes it available for public use.
