A couple of popular events highlight the TVO Roundup, including the second of two local races to celebrate Global Running Day.
Summer typically is light on big schedules although we do have a few on the calendar. The annual Running Lane Wild Thangs summer series kicks off Saturday morning at Monte Sano State Park. This four-run series is popular, fun, and includes long- and short-course events. Registration is closed for this first one, but you can still jump into the final three events.
On to the roundup!
