Running Events
Running, which is among the oldest sports in the world, is practiced year-round on both competitive and recreational levels by males and females of all ages. You will find most weekends throughout the summer packed with running/walking events. The hardest part is deciding which event you want to do. Running events are open to runners & walkers of all abilities. Check periodically throughout the year for race changes listed at the bottom.
