Trail racing?

I might have just filed an application to do this.  It works well into my lung run schedule and gives me a chance to experience trail running for the first time.  I definitely won't be running it for time since the marathon is my goal and this will be my first trail run.  I don't know why I applied but it just sort of happened!  Maybe all this not running this week has gone to my brain.  I was looking for a half earlier in the summer to run and not having any luck (or, should I say, luck that didn't involve a registration fee more expensive than MCM).  The lucky part of this is that the application deadline is today, so I just got in.  I need to check back in a week or so to see if I got picked, and then take it from there.  Any NOVA people out there want to try and get in to run this with me?  I would love the company and a chance to meet and get to know some of my fellow local bloggers.  Lets do this!

Thanks to everyone who entered my giveaway yesterday.  Right now the odds of winning are really awesome so I encourage you to enter if you haven't done so already.  Just read the giveaway post and follow the commenting instructions! :)

  1. Hopefully, I get in to the race! It won't be a pretty run, but if I can do a half on trail, doing one on road will be easy. Thanks for the challenge!

  3. Awesome! Trail races are so much fun--definitely a more relaxed atmosphere than a road race. If I was closer I would totally come join you!
