Maysville will host two multi-sport races in 2009. The annual Buffalo Trails multisport races are scheduled May 23, and the Mideast Region Club Series Championship will be held August 15.
It will be the first time the MERCS Championship has been held in Kentucky.
Both dates will feature a duathlon, triathlon and 5K run. The distances will be longer for the MERCS Championship. Race Director Mark Day says the swim will be seventh-tenths of a mile,
the bike will be 25 miles and the final run will be 6.2 miles. The May race consists of a half-mile swim, 22 mile bike and 3.1 mile run. The MERCS Championship will begin at 5 p.m.
Businesses interested in sponsoring the races should contact the Maysville-Mason County Chamber of Commerce. Sponsorships, including the title sponsor, include both races.
