Winston-Salem's Cook Medical Beat the Heat 5K annually serves as the USATF state road race championship for 3.1 miles.

The Twin City Track Club's 2022 event will start at 6:30 p.m. July 16 with a fun run. A 5K at 7 p.m. will give us non-elite runners a chance to race and finish in time to watch the state's fastest men and women get going at 8 p.m.

The application period for charity partners that are 501(c)3 entities and that make a direct impact on fitness and community health is open through Jan. 7.

Click on the video to see an interview with the 2021 Beat the Heat 5K winners.

The 2021 elite race at the Winston-Salem Fairgrounds proved to be Beat the Thunderstorm, and Donnie Cowart and Jonna Strange led the way in doing that.

Registration for Beat the Heat will open April 1.
