The unofficial start to summer is upon us ushering in the season of cookouts, beaches (to suit-up for your open water swim), outdoor pools (for laps of course – not recreation) and weather that doesn’t require 5 layers of clothing to get outside for a workout. It also brings weekends packed with opportunity to race.
Clay’s Park Triathlon kicks off the 2013 triathlon season on Saturday with a sprint triathlon through its name sake park and the surrounding rolling hills of North Lawrence. Also on tap for Saturday – make your way out to Grafton for the First Place 5k and enjoy the Grafton Fireman’s Festival afterwards. The classic Blossom Time Run happens on Sunday – lots of hills, lots of pain, lots of fun. If hills aren’t your thing, head out to the Spire Institute and run for a good cause this Memorial Day Weekend. The 1st Lt. Michael Runyan 5k benefits the Wounded Warrior Project.
Happy Memorial Day! See you at the races!
