Charlotte Running Club turns 4 years old on Sunday May 5, 2013. We celebrate the club birthday each year with the Tequila 400m. When we founded the club in 2009, we were doing a 400m workout at JCSU in an massive (in fact kind of dangerous) thunderstorm. On our last 400m, we take a shot of Tequila and then ran an all out 400m. Here is the original crew.
Even if you don't want to "race", come celebrate and cheer! Please keep social media pictures to a minimum as we have certainly have fun at the event but it is not something sanctioned or we want to make too public given the nature of the activities.
Where: Corner of S. McDowell St and Baxter Street (1 block down from Dilworth Neighborhood Grille) 5pm gather for the Tequila - 5.15pm race starts.
Format: At 5.15pm, each racer will have a shot of tequila in hand (lime and salt will be available and optional). At the sound of the gun start, take your shot and then you are off running. First male and first female to the finish wins cash!!! Added $10 bonus to anyone you breaks Thomas Eggar’s course record. Happy Birthday Charlotte Running Club!!!
Registration: 5pm - $5 cash gets u one dixie cup with a shot of Tequila (bring milk if u are a non drinker) and a chance to win cash if you are the top male or female finisher.
