The Bethesda-Chevy Chase Rescue Squad yesterday announced it will hold its 3rd annual Rescue 1 Run 8K Road Race on Sunday, May 1, 2016 at 8:00 AM in Bethesda. They will also host a separate event for children simultaneously, the Kids Ambulance Chase Fun Run. Food, music, an open house at the squad's station, a moon bounce, and a performance by The Great Zucchini will round out the day's festivities.

Starting off near the station house at 5020 Battery Lane, racers will follow Old Georgetown Road to Beech Avenue, Linden Avenue, Pooks Hill Road and Rockville Pike, ending back at the station on Battery.
