The Monster Dash Half, 10-Mile, 5K and 5K-9 races are filled with great scenery, not just the Halloween costumes people wear, but the fall color is at its peak in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area during our race. The routes for this race take advantage of that, taking runners in and around some of the most scenic areas Minneapolis has to offer: including Lake Harriet, Lake Calhoun and a portion of Minnehaha Parkway.
This looks like fun! I can't wait to register for the whole series in 2011!
The Polar Dash in January
The Get Lucky 7K in March

Ragnar Relay Great River, August 20-21, 2010
This is the one, the race I'm training for. My reason to keep going. At least until August 21, then there will be the next big race. I'm so excited! Doesn't it sound like fun?
Ragnar Relay Great River is turning 5 this year. What better way to celebrate than a 193-mile party with 11 of your best friends.
SO HOW DOES IT WORK? Teams of 12 will run along the world-famous Mississippi River as they rock out, enjoy the wacky participant costumes, and make life-long friends with teammates and competitors. The party runs along the Great River Road starting in Winona, MN cutting into Wisconsin and ending in Minneapolis, MN with FREE PIZZA and ALMOST FREE BEER ($2 pints).

Lottery Registration opens Monday, July 5 and closes Wednesday, July 14
I can't believe I entered a lottery for a 8,000 person race. I have no idea if I'll be selected, but it sounds like fun!
The drawing will be held on Thursday, July 15 and lottery results will be available at mtcmarathon.org by 3 p.m. Friday, July 16.

Catfish Days 10K 2010, July 11, 2010
I registered by email today! I'm committed now...although I registered the family for the BK 5K and most of us were sick. The day of the race was the first day I finally felt better, but I didn't make anyone run.
This one is only me, so I'm committed. Wake up early, nourish, hydrate, prepare, finish, drive home. I guess technically a PR is a given since I've never ran a 10K race before. My average pace is slow, I expect to finish in 1:15. At least it's a PR I expect I can beat soon...on my next 10K, right?
