227/365 Racing Season

Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,

Though there are races every weekend all over the place, spring, summer and fall are the major road racing seasons. You've got your charity 5ks, community 10Ks, sprint triathalons, half, and full marathons.

The only race I've done is the Monument 10K, a tour of Richmond's lovely Monument Ave with over 30,000 people. I did it twice and had a blast. A race that I'd love to do is the Tough Mudder , run 3 miles of hell; don't worry, there's beer at the end! If you do well, you could don the champion Viking helmet. My next endeavor will be the sprint triathalon which means that I should probably work on my cycling and swimming. Oh boy...anyway, find races near you with Runner's World's handy dandy tool.

In health,

Lauren
