Why run a race in May
It is Texas summer racing. May mornings are warm and often humid across most of the state, and the heat builds fast after sunrise. Most summer races start early or run after dark. Drink before you are thirsty, run by effort rather than pace, and stop for heavy sweating, weakness or clammy skin. Our Texas heat training guide covers training through it.
A smaller calendar, mostly short races. 82 races are on the Texas calendar this May, 63 of them on Saturdays: 67 with a 5K, 40 with a 10K, 35 with a half marathon, 5 with a full marathon and 7 with an ultra. Organizers add summer races through the spring, so check back.
Build for the fall. Summer is base-building season for a fall half or marathon. Pick your goal race from the October races and November races, or see all half marathons in Texas.
