Weekend Weather-The Keyword this Weekend is HYDRATE
Have you seen the weather forecast for race weekend? Well…
This weekend looks to be unseasonably hot for the first weekend of fall.
Start hydrating now! And stay hydrated through race weekend. We’ll have as much ice as we can buy at the aid stations but have your crews bring some for you too!
Drink plenty of water, don’t get thirsty.
