Borrowed from Trivium Racing's website |
I won a race entry and will race as part of their relay team with three other runners. Those three are Larry, who I've met through the Kona Running Company and, Megan and Alexis - also bloggers.
So this is the deal. Run about 16 times around a 1.6 mile track, so basically, I only need to run a little over six miles to finish the marathon as a group. A far cry from my typical long run or even race for that matter but I'll be starting marathon training next Monday so I've decided to skip my long run for this race. Yes, it's true! I figure I could use the break anyway. This will be my second marathon relay as I did the Detroit Marathon in 2010 as a relay as well which was a great time.
I've run with the Renewal by Andersen of Detroit team in the past, and I originally was thinking that I had not run for them this year but I forgot about the Freeze your Franny race in January. Poor Brandon really froze - at least us runners got to move around and get warm. It had to be the coldest race I've ever run. It's fortunate for me that I get to run this race with three other great runners that I also happen to know. It should make for a really fun time.
Freeze your Franny 5k - and we did! |
Have a great day and....Keep Running!!!!
Four races in five weekends! Wow!! Best of luck on your upcoming race!
