What is the BC Race to Educate?The BC Race to Educate is a family-friendly road race fundraiser to benefit Saint Columbkille Partnership School in Brighton, MA.
The race takes place at Boston College, and runners enjoy starting and ending the race inside Alumni Stadium.
Started by Coach Mike Cavanaugh and the BC hockey team in 2011, it has grown dramatically.
Runners, walkers, sponsors, families, BC athletes, musicians, and alumni all come together to make a difference in the lives of the students at Saint Columbkille.
What is Saint Columbkille Partnership School?
Saint Cols is a vibrant pre-K through Grade 8 Catholic school in Brighton, MA.
In 2006, Saint Columbkille School, like so many urban Catholic schools, was slated for closure.
With the support of Boston College and its Lynch School of Education and Human Development, as well as the continued commitment of Saint Columbkille Parish and the Archdiocese of Boston, Saint Columbkille School was saved.
Fast forward to 2025, and we are a diverse school of 375 students with more than 25 different languages spoken in the homes of our students.
What race distances do you offer?
The 5K race is a 3.1-mile loop through the Boston College campus.
The start and finish takes place in Alumni Stadium.
It's quite an experience!
This race is available to all runners, including adults and students age 12 and above.
For those under the age of 12 who are not running the 5K, we also offer a kids fun run.
A 50-yard dash takes place in Alumni Stadium for children age 4 and under.
A timed 1K race, which is about 0.62 miles, for children ages 5 to 11 starts in Alumni Stadium, includes a quick loop outside the stadium and finishes on the football field back at the starting line.
