Re: Who's racing this weekend?

  • I am. I am doing the Hogeye Half Marathon on Sunday. This will be my second half, the first one I had to walk, this one is going to be a little more than walking. Doc have me permission to Run a mile, walk a while.   I am super excited!
  • I am!  GO! St. Louis on Sunday, hopefully the rain holds off! 

    Good luck to everyone!

  • I can finally say ME! It's been a while :) I'm running a Metric Marathon (26.2k, 16.3m). I'm still working on my endurance, so it won't be pretty. And 80's?!? Um, no thanks. Even though it isn't looking like it will be a great race for me, my kids will be doing the fun run and cheering me on at the finish. I can't wait for that! 

     

    Good luck to all the racers!

    I have wanted to do this race! Good Luck!

  • Me! I'm doing a fun, small, local 5K. I was planning on a 10K this week, but decided to switch to a 5K because I'm dying to beat my last 5K time. This course is flat as a pancake, so we shall see!!

    Wishing you all speedy feet!

    I wondered if you were going to be in town for it since you did the RnR last fall!  It is a good race, you should do it next year!

    I was thinking about it this year but since there was one closer to home I went with that. I will be at the RnR STL this year but I am not sure on if I will actually be racing! (surgery is in July and I do not know how I will be by Oct) I might just go and cheer you guys on.

    3.2 for the 32 Run in Remembrance on VT's campus tomorrow.

     

    *It's not actually a race, as there are no winners because of the lives lost and what these 3.2 miles represent. But I'll be pumping away out there, to prevail.

    very cool, very powerful. that gave me the chills. good luck! thoughts and prayers to the victims and their fam and friends.

  • I'm doing a local 5K tomorrow morning.  The course is right by the university where I work, and I am very excited because it is flat as a pancake.  Speaking of pancakes, that's what I am going to be eating afterward, and I may be looking forward to that more than the race. :-)
  • Good luck everyone!

    Good luck to you on your first 5K! And a winery? Sweet!

     

     

    I'm racing too, a 10 miler. It's my last race for the spring (since I'll be OOT for a couple 13.1's I had wanted to do... booooo...) but I'm pretty excited about it. It's been two years since I've raced 10 miles, so I'm expecting a pretty big PR. I'm hoping the weather holds... I don't mind if it rains, but I hope the thunder/lightning hold off until after the race!

    i have a half marathon this weekend.  signed up on a whim a few months ago... have no goal.

    though i just realized i must have not been thinking when i registerd because my corral is based on my 5k pace, not my HM pace, which are, oh, a minute apart. oops.

  • I'm running a Cherry Blossom 5k in Philly on Sunday.  Not sure what to expect since the forecast for Sunday is 80 and my allergies have been clobbering me this week.  It will be a huge help if I'm able to breathe out of my nose by them.

     

    Good luck, everyone!!
