Longest Dam Wait For Race Soon Over

Over 150 are already registered to run, walk or bike the 19th annual Longest Dam Race on Saturday. With registrations accepted the morning of the event, over 250 are expected to participate in the morning event – especially with the good weather that looks likely to cooperate.

According to the Glasgow Weather Service, the high on Saturday is 75 and the low is 51 in the morning, with only 10-15 mph winds. There is a slight chance of rain, however.

Registration for the event continues in the morning at 7 a.m., and the first event, the 10-kilometer run, will take off at 8 a.m.

The 5K run begins at 9, followed by the 5K walk 15 minutes later. Then, the novice bike race, which is a 10-mile course, starts at 9:30. Finally, the 1-mile run/walk starts at 10:30.

The awards ceremony is directly following the conclusion of the 1-mile run/walk.
