Sport events in the summer to take part in

[Winterharborway]

Hi- I posted this on the activities thread as well, but figured this maybe more active. I'm interested in taking part of any races/ running/walking/ min triathalons, etc held in the Lakes region. As the warm weather will soon be approaching I would love to set some goals. the Granite State Tri is too much for me, i need something on a lower scale. Let me know!

Anyone interested? We could possibly form a team!

Thanks! Jennifer

I am usually up weekends so if there are any events, please let me know!!

Try the "Race to the Face (http://www.franconiasports.com/about_topnotch_triathlon.html)"

www.coolrunning.com (http://www.coolrunning.com) is one of the better places to keep track of upcoming local races.

(PS, I have no connection with the site. It is fairly well known within the running community)

Hi Jennifer

Check this site out. The Timberman is a great event. It may be sold out, but I would keep checking.

Endorfun does a great job with all of these.

Good luck!

-Center Harbor 4th of July 5 mile run is fun.
-Muddy Moose in Wolfeboro on 4/20 if you like trail running. Its a 4 mile or a 14 mile run.
- And I think there is a race in Moultonborough.
- Also the Tuckerman Ravine Inferno race. I think its 4/19 not sure.

~Gilford Old Home Day is a good 4 mile. It's at the end of August.
~Gilford Hills might be running one this summer as well. They used to run one with Patrick's but that stopped last year I believe. But there are talks of putting on another one.
Concord has quite a few too.
Good luck and hope to see you in the races! :)

The Reach the Beach is an annual 24-hour, 200 mile relay race from Franconia Notch to Hampton Beach. This year's race will take place September 12 -13. Believe it or not, the event is already sold out but volunteers are still needed and it's possible that some teams may need runners.
