“If you don’t already know, Corpus Christi, Texas is one of the friendliest places in the country, if not the world, offering year round fun in the sun! The coastal city is known for its beauty and historic Naval yard and marina. In addition to a fantastic swim in the Naval Marina, another major highlight of this event is the run course along the beautiful Gulf of Mexico, dotted with lovely coastal homes.”
You can register for the event through the ACTIVE dot com web. You can also visit the HITS website directly for more information. Come and join the fun and choose your event!
This is no place to add commercials unless the club is paid for them.
