Fit & Able is proud to bring back the Sizzling Soles Half-marathon at Mills School Park! If you're looking for a low-key race to keep you active over the summer, give you a goal to train for, and get you ready for the fall race season this is the race for you!
Every runner chases the dream of running a marathon. The marathon presents a challenge that requires hard work, determination, and focus; and when achieved, it provides great satisfaction and joy.
BUT have you ever wanted to run a marathon without having to actually run a marathon? With the Summer Series 26.2 you can do just that when you sign up for both 13.1 races at the Sizzling Soles Half-marathon and Summers Done 13.1. Complete both races and we will combine your finish times to give you a 26.2 finish time with a extra set of awards!
PLUS you can save 10% on each race when you sign up for both together using the Summer Series 26.2 Bundle! * You can find the bundle under the main event cards above (click View All Events).
OR, how about an ultra-marathon? Complete all five Fit & Able 13.1 races - a combined total of 65.5 miles! - and again we will combine your finish times for yet another extra set of awards!
* FOR YOUR SAFETY: Please review this information on HYDRATION and HEAT DISORDERS and ensure you have adequately trained for your chosen race distance under these specific climate conditions. This is a summer event in North Carolina. You can find historical climate data for race day in Cary, NC here: https://weatherspark.com/y/20147/Average-Weather-in-Cary-North-Carolina-United-States-Year-Round
All races will have a staggered start beginning at 7:00 AM (in order of distance) and the course closes for all races at 10:00 AM (In-person Race Day Schedule). Please consider your race pace when deciding which event to run. * For any participants who feel they may need some extra time, please contact us at info@fitandable.net.

Cary is a town in the Research Triangle of North Carolina. It is primarily a fast-growing suburb of Raleigh, the state capital, but has developed some economic gravity of its own. Cary is known throughout the area for having a very high population of non-native residents. The name of the city is jokingly referred to as standing for Containment/Concentration Area for Relocated Yankees.
