Oh wait this might be working…I am new to PHP….
notice the instances of “$currMonth != $date->format(‘F’)”, I imagine this makes the function return a string, is that right?

<?php
             
             $repeater = get_field('race_event');
             foreach( $repeater as $key => $row )
               { 
                 $column_id[ $key ] = $row['race_date'];
               } 
               array_multisort( $column_id, SORT_ASC, $repeater );
               
               $currMonth = "start";
               foreach( $repeater as $row ) :
               {
                 $date = DateTime::createFromFormat('Ymd', $row['race_date']); 
                 $website_url = $row['race_website'];
                 
                 if ($currMonth != $date->format('F')) :
                   {
                     echo '<h2>' . $date->format('F') . '</h2><br>';
                     $currMonth = $date->format('F');
                   }
                 endif;
                 
                 echo '<ul>';
		               echo '<li><h2>' . $row['race_name'] . '</h2></li>';
		               echo '<li>Date ' . $date->format('F d, Y') . '</li>';
		               echo '<li>Distance ' . $row['race_distance'] . '</li>';
		               echo '<li>Vertical ' . $row['race_vertical'] . '</li>';
		               echo '<li>URL <a href=' . $website_url . '> ' . $website_url . ' </a></li>';
		               echo '<li>' . $row['race_description'] . '</li>';
		             echo '</ul>';
               }
               endforeach;
               ?>
