Holiday Weekend for Racing


With the Memorial Holiday weekend upon us, I'm hoping that I'll be even more motivated to get out and run than usual. Starting this morning, I was actually able to get myself out of bed for a run (woo hoo!)

Now, that the weather is warmer and there's no school or work to get up for this weekend, maybe making a race part of your weekend plans, does fits in after all.

If you decide you want to do a race and not sure where to go, check out Race Forum.com

they are a great resource for local race info. There are a bunch others, like:

the Race Calendar feature on
RunnersWorld.com
or
CoolRunning.com

While you're out there, don't forget to hydrate. Don't rely on the race you attend to supply enough, bring some of your own. As we know from our own experiences - those race volunteers, while well-intentioned, can be a bit 'spotty' in their coverage. Or depending on the length of your race, you can carry your own water during the race. You can find great water bottles at Road Runner Sport store or Sports Authority for a wide selection.

And once you hydrate with water --

continue to hydrate with your favorite adult beverage ( 1 ) ( 2 ) or ( 3 )
And run safe this weekend!
