The course is set


Kathy has been working on this half marathon in Arlington for really 2 years now. The race date is set for Sunday May 10th, Mothers Day. It is going to be an amazing event, even in it's first year.


We used to do a 10K in Arlington in May, but decided to change it to the Pacers Running Festival (which includes a half marathon, a 5K, and a kids dash). The half marathon distance is the fastest growing race distance in the county. There are a few half marathons during the spring, but a lot of people living in DC or Northern VA who run them have to travel a long way. Not for this race.


We just finalized the course (above). All in Arlington, all pretty flat, all pretty fast. It is going to be a party afterwards and even a Mother's Day brunch. That's whats up. I'll see you in May.
Two runs today.
7.1 miles with Cakes in 1:06.
7.25 miles solo in 56:00
14.35 miles total.
Another glass half full day for me.
