2020 Upcoming August Events


Summer Series Status

The Summer Series calendar has been assembled for the entire season. Because the majority of our races are held at establishments that are currently closed, all races will be determined with the condition that the host site is open for business.  Race information will be updated as each race date gets closer. Each race has a race director you can contact for further information if needed.

We thank you for your understanding and patience and as always stay well.

Mill City Relay Information

Just an FYI to all members. No decision has yet been made on the Mill Cities Relay for 2020. A meeting has been scheduled for September to determine the status of the race for this year. Bear in mind that we run through 5 towns and 2 states, all of which we need to get permits from. If any one of them says no, it’s likely a no go, or at best, a postponement. I’ll keep everybody posted as soon as I get word. Thanx much. Jeff
