2013 Running Year in Review

2013 Running Year in Review

2013 is the race-iest year for me yet. Here are the races I participated in which netted me a couple of nice new blings. The best is, of course, the Tiffany necklace from Nike!

March 2013   Rock n Roll USA 1/2 Marathon
April 2013     CU Cherry Blossom 10 Mile Run
April 2013     Nike Women's Half Marathon Washington DC
October 2013 Army Ten Miler
October 2013 MCM 10K

As you can see, summer is a snooze-fest but not run free. I traveled a lot over the summer but had lovely training runs in new places (Las Vegas, Carlsbad and Maui).

Looking ahead for 2014, here are the races that I'm hoping to participate in:

April 2014     CU Cherry Blossom 10 Mile Run (lottery)
or
April 2014     GW Parkway Classic 10 Miler
April 2014     Nike Women's Half Marathon Washington DC (lottery)
October 2014 Army Ten Miler (last one before I become a legacy runner
October 2014 Marine Corp Marathon (lottery. My very first!)

If I don't get into the MCM, I'm going to try for the Philadelphia Marathon. Cross-fingers!
