Running and spitting go hand in hand (just not literally, we hope). You’ve got a pretty open schedule on July 31—take a running road trip to Murfreesboro, NC, for the Watermelon Festival 5K. Why drive four hours for a 5K, you ask? Every runner receives an official Murfreesboro watermelon! None of those knockoff melons for these guys, just real-deal official melons. After the run, test your mettle against the locals in the watermelon spitting and eating contests. See more festival info here >>
