Tequila 400m CRC B-Day May 5 - Park Rd Shopping Center

Charlotte Running Club turns 6 years old on Tuesday May 5, 2015. We unofficially celebrate the club birthday each year with the Tequila 400m. When we founded the club in 2009, the crew below was doing a 400m workout at JCSU in an massive (in fact kind of dangerous) thunderstorm. On our last 400m, we each took a shot of Tequila and then ran an all out 400m. Here is the original crew.

Where: This year we will move to our 4th location. On Tuesday  May 5th anyone interested should be in front of Omega Sports Park road location at 7.15pm. We will head down to the greenway for the race.  If you want a few miles before the race come join the official CRC birthday celebration at 6.30pm.. 

Format: At 7.30pm, each racer will have a shot of tequila in hand (lime and salt will be available and optional). We will all take a shot and then line up for the 400m. At the sound of the gun, boom, we are racin!!! First male and first female to the finish wins cash!!! A $10 bonus to anyone you breaks Thomas Eggar’s course record.  Happy Birthday Charlotte Running Club!!!

Registration: 7.15-7.25pm- $5 cash gets u one 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. Find Aaron Linz to register.

Even if you don't want to "race", come celebrate and cheer! Please keep social media pictures to a minimum as we will certainly have fun at the event but it is not something sanctioned or anything we want to make too public given the nature of the activities.
