Here's the flyer for the Larch Hill XC race which I did last year and highly recommend: http://www.commonschool.org/pdfs/Rac...yer%202010.pdf

It's mostly on grass, with hay bales to jump over and lots of mud (at least last year it was muddy). There's food after. There is also a costume contest since it's Halloween weekend...last year the winner was a guy dressed as Lt. Dangle from Reno 911--it was hilarious!!

I'm thinking I'll have to run as a villager, with a pitchfork, dress, and my VFFs. Anyone else want to run this? Dirt cheap and lots of fun...

7Rider and I are doing the Celtic Solstice 5 miler on December 18 with another friend; she's never run beyond 5k and I've never raced beyond 4 miles. Should be an interesting 8 weeks!

Not really "upcoming" - but is anyone interested in running the Utah Valley marathon/half-marathon next...June, I think?

I'm thinking of making the half my return-to-running goal.

(I don't even think I've seen anyone on here from Utah, but I thought I'd throw it out there! Oh, and it starts in the mountains somewhere and ends in Provo)

Now I am signed up for my first 50K on December 11th--the Tashka 50K in Tuscaloosa!

My next running race is on New Year's Day. It's a tradition in our house. DH and I have run this race every year we've been together. The weather is always terrible. And the last mile or so along Lake Michigan is terribly brutal. The wind that comes off the lake creates a wall. Not to mention the ice that covers the roads. Good times. And a great way to start the year.

Oh, we also do a Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot. DD and DS join us. It's a 5k. Last year it took us almost an hour to finish. But DD is getting pretty speedy now that she's 5 yo. I have a feeling we'll be in the 40's this year.
