From the Organizer
Each Thursday includes one 5k-ish run and two cyclocross races. Registration opens at 5:00p. The 5k-ish is 2x laps starting at 6:00pm. The first bike race is 4x laps and starts at 6:45pm. We take a break between each race to check your lights or figure out why you came here in the first place. The second race is three laps in the opposite direction. We keep score, but as long as you start the race, you’re winning!
This event is sanctioned by USA Track & Field, Sanction #165796.
