After watching Grandma's this weekend, I was feeling the itch to get in a few races. So I promptly signed up for Whistlestop Marathon in Ashland, WI on Oct 10. It'll be back to roots for me as this was the site of my first marathon back in 2005. Nice flat course, mostly trail running, fall colors guaranteed, cool weather likely, and a PR hopefully.
Also signed up for Urban Wildland Half Marathon in Richfield, MN on Aug 1. It's a green race with biodegradable cups and trash bags, sustainable paper, free bus rides, organic food, etc. It also happens to be a great course.
