Course & Travel Notes

Head to Winston Salem, North Carolina for Friday The 13K on November 13th, 2026, where you'll be racing at 6:00 PM at an elevation of 732 feet. Smith Reynolds Airport is just 8.3 miles away, making it super convenient for getting in and out of town. Pack layers for typical November weather in the area—you're looking at highs around 61°F and lows near 35°F, so bring a light jacket for both the race and the cool evenings. There's a decent chance of rain this time of year, so waterproof gear might be worth throwing in your bag just in case.
