Race Calendar for Saturday, May 22nd and Beyond

I'm sitting here at home with my CEP compression recovery socks on (sexy as the proverbial socks on a rooster) and looking at next Saturday's local races.  Yesterday's Wilkes CIS 8k and 5k races, along with this morning's 12-mile hill session took their toll on the old calves.

As usual there are several races from which to choose.  Mercifully due to the heat and humidity most of them are 5k races.

• Thin Mint Sprint 5K Run/Walk, Carowinds Charlotte
• 5K For Clean Air, Charlotte
• Great Harvest Bread Co. 5K, Charlotte
• On A Mission 5k Run/Walk, Concord
• River Bound Race Series 10k, Charlotte

Looking further ahead and a little further away, there will be a new set of trail races in Wilkesboro on November 13, 2010.  Titled the Overmountain Victory Trail Revolutionary Run Trail Races, it will consist of 10k and 25k races.  Wilkesboro is just a short one hour drive from the Lake Norman area.  If you're keen on trail running put this on your calendar.
