Race Schedule:
I have been contemplating potential upcoming races and plan on using this Sundays, Nick Markakis-Right Side Foundation 5K Run as a "fitness assesment" to see where I am...It is a Back on My Feet event, so it'll be good to finally do a race with them :)
Me and a couple of the original McVets BOMF residential members- Arnold,Terrel and Tate.
Arnold will be competing in his first marathon at the Baltimore Running Festival this October.
I also was just informed that I won the Under Armour lottery for a comped entry to any of the Baltimore Running festival events. I need to determine whether or not I can get a competitive relay together that are interested in competing in UA gear (I assume ALL would be-but my concern is participants willingness to switch shoes for a race...) If I can't get a solid group together, I will most likely run the 5K or just suck it up and do the half. Although, I had intentions of running the Philadelphia Half which would ensure a faster time. Ahh! Too many decisions...
Oh yeah, still need to decide if I am going to do a Sprint Tri.
