2010 Race Calendar

Almost a new year. Running is going surprisingly well, though you couldn't tell by my lack of updating here. The good news is, in my busy schedule I have chosen to make time for running, not writing.

So I'm setting up a race calendar for 2010. One race a month (or thereabouts). Anything past May, however, is quite tentative. A trip to Africa is in the works and there's no telling when I'm leaving.

Here's what we've got:

January 23, 2010: Isaac Dickson Hot Chocolate 10K in Asheville, NC with a good friend, Erin.

February: Open

March 6, 2010: Alston + Bird LLC Corporate Cup Half Marathon in Charlotte, NC with the BFF

April 17, 2010 (Maybe): Elizabeth 8k Road Race in Charlotte, NC
April 24, 2010: Great Urban Race in Charlotte, NC - Have to defend that top 25 finish from 2009!

May 22, 2010: Warrior Dash in Mountain City, GA - No, really. Go to the website. That is going to be an insane race.


Not sure what to do in February. I found a 5k in Rock Hill that benefits a good cause, but I'd really like to run a longer road race (15k or so) before the Half Marathon in March. We'll see - the local running stores haven't put up their 2010 calendars yet, so maybe there's something in there that's interesting.

Also just found a half marathon in April that looks like it might be a cooler deal than the March one - it will just depend on what my best friend's schedule looks like.

What about you? Any good races on your calendar?
