On the Houston Running Bloggers message board, we always have a topic going about what races everyone is doing for the upcoming weekend. I commented that I would be at home in Charlotte and hadn’t been able to find a race there on Saturday (granted, I didn’t look very hard, just visited the website of my “local” running store in Charlotte and that was it). However, the amazing Jon took my comment to heart and found me a race! SO, Saturday morning I’ll be running the 10K in the Charlotte RaceFest!
It starts only a few miles from my house — next to the mall where I worked for two years — and the route also passes by my high school. Fun! You may have noticed a dearth of running-related posts lately, and that’s because I haven’t been doing much running. Therefore my goal for Saturday is 11:30 or better miles, or ~1:12 or better finishing time. What a nice way to kickstart my running again.
Thanks Jon!
Best wishes for racing this weekend. it totally kicks ass to see you twice in one week…i would go for the ‘trifecta’ and try to stalk you at an aeros game, lol…
