This Saturday, August 8, is the inaugural Mayor’s Cup, which is the competition among the city’s running clubs, at Belmont Plateau. There are five events: 5K cross country race, 5 mile road race, 10K trail race, 10 mile road race and half marathon trail race. Mayor’s Cup is a team event; the top finisher for each gender from each team “scores” for each squad in a reverse cross country meet-type scoring system.
SPS has 26 entrants among the five events to take on the 30+ clubs entered. The events start at 7:30 a.m., with the start of the trail half.
There will be no regularly-scheduled 8 a.m. Saturday run.
