Races I want to try to run this year.

I've been working hard to increase my mileage and my endurance. It's been a cold, snowy winter, so it's a major work in progress. And because I've been working so hard, I've decided I want to run some races. Just because to prove that I can.

I don't want to be fast; I don't want to win; I just want to finish.

Here's the list:

1. Saturday, April 30, 2011 - Country Music Half Marathon
   I'm gonna need some more time and more work before I'm ready for the distance so I'm moving this one to the 2012 list and aiming for my first half this fall instead. :o)
   
   
2. Saturday, May 7, 2011 - Komen Race for the Cure 5K
   WV Komen Race for the Cure
   
   
3. Saturday, May 21, 2011 - Dirty Dog 15K Trail Run

4. Saturday, September 3, 2011 - Charleston Distance Run (15M)

5. Sometime in September - Creek to Peak Half Marathon Trail Run (13.1M)

   (hopefully they'll do this race again in 2011. This park is where we do most of our trail running)
   
   
6. Saturday, October 1, 2011 - Beckley Half Marathon (13.1 M)

No idea which of these I'll actually run, but I'm hoping to knock a few of them off the "to run" list. I'll keep you posted. :o)
