The 2018 May Minnesota Race Guide
May is a fantastic time of year to think about new goals and achievements we want to accomplish. I think the consistently warmer weather and more time outside brings clarity to the mind and strength to the body. At least for me, this inspires me to set more audacious goals, or hunker down and refocus on the ones I’ve already set.
Below is a list of all of our upcoming featured races, as well as everything you may want to look at in the month of May! Pick one as a tuneup, or use the next few weeks to go after a PR at a new distance.
