June 1: Upcoming running/walking/bicycling/tri events

Upcoming events


Check out this BikeWalkLee Column for our take on organized running and biking events this summer. Visit the event websites, such as Fort Myers Track Club (ftmyerstrackclub.com), Gulf Coast Runners (gcrunner.org), Caloosa Riders (caloosariders.org), and South West Florida Critical Mass (meetup.com/Biking-SWFL) for the latest updates.

Most of the near-term upcoming events are still postponed or cancelled, but don't let that stop you from taking a run or a bicycle ride. Just keep an eye on the weather and do not go out if thunderstorms are in the forecast. Whether you are cycling or running, always be aware of motorized traffic around you. Avoid dehydration. Drink before you get thirsty.

Protect yourself and others by avoiding group activities and close proximity to other people.  Getting some exercise and enjoying the outdoors is fine. Just remember to practice social distancing (at least 6' distance, more when you're exercising, use common sense) to keep yourself and others safe. If you feel sick, consider wearing a face mask or staying home. Stay healthy. Visit floridahealthcovid19.gov and cdc.gov for more information.
