I figure three races, one a month, will be a good way to close out my first year of Endurance Sport. Here are three races that I am scheduled to run.
· Saucony Three Point One - Sunday October 7, 2006
- 5K & Kids Run Jacob (1/2 mile) and Bella (1/4 mile)
Jacob, Isabella and Colby are supposed to run this race. Steve D. and I will do the 5K and if I can get Donna to do the 5K then she’ll have to do it in less than 30 minutes in order to watch the kids race! LOL. It’s a trail run and is probably a similar course to the LA Tri Express Triathlon I did in June. It should be fun and a good way to get the kids experience in organized racing - they get a medal for just crossing the finish line!
· The KOST 103.5 and KCAL 9 Yule Log Jog - Sunday November 5, 2006
- 5K Run/Walk, 10K Run, 1K Kiddie Run
Heck, we run at the Rose Bowl anyway, we might as well run with a group and participate in the festivities. Its always nice to get a shirt with your entry fee too. At least I think you get a shirt.
· Say No To Drugs 5K – 10 Race - Sunday December 10, 2006
- 5K Run, 5K Fun Walk, 10K Run, 1K Kiddie Fun Run
Ah… the race that started it all. I don’t know if I considered Triathlon when I ran this race but this was the very first organized race I’ve ever done. Steve D., Vivian C., Mikey T. and good old me… I don’t think Vivian has run since! This year Donna will run it with me. I can’t wait.
If I can squeeze a Tri or a race in between these three I’ll be happy. But right now I think my body is appreciating the fact that there’s no stressful race I’m preparing for. Just some normal fun runs!
If you’re interested in joining me in any of these races let me know. It’ll be fun to run with friends!!!
