By Northern Express Staff & Contributors | May 7, 2022

This one is for the runners, the swimmers, the bikers, and the paddlers. It’s even for those brave and wild souls who do triathlons. (We bow to you, even if we don’t understand you.) Do you want to see your upcoming race included in Northern Express’ summer race calendar in northwest Lower Michigan? Step one: Open an email to events[at]traverseticker[dot]com. Step two: Include the race name, race date, race location, website address for race information, and the website address for online registration. Step three: Click send. The comprehensive race roundup will be featured in our Memorial Day issue, so be sure to send everything in no later than May 18. We look forward to cheering all you exercising people on. (We’ll be the folks at the beer—ahem, water—station.)
