The 5ks are starting to sprout up

It's been great to be able to shed the layers and run in the warm weather. Spring means more 5ks and other opportunities to see what you can do.

Here's a link to the track club calendar so you can see what races are coming up:

I'm thinking of doing Bright Stars, volunteering at Discovery Dash, and running in the Run Like A Girl race.

As for this week, who wants to run where and when? Can we get breakfast after?

This week

Ok, there looks to be a group heading to Fluvanna for the Meals on Wheels 5k. There is a link in the Tuesday post.

This was listed in the comments, "There is a 5K this Sunday, April 26 to benefit the Syndey Aichs scholarship fund. Syndey is the AHS high school student who was killed in a car accident at the intersection of Rt. 29 and Forest Lakes South last May. Registration is at 7:30 a.m., the race starts at 8 a.m. It is at the Forest Lakes South soccer field."

I'm going to stay in town Saturday and do the 7:45 run. We'll meet at 2nd and Garrett (near the Glass building).

Happy Running

Spring is in the air!

I love running this time of year. I'm not really training for anything, the flowers start popping, the dogwoods are blooming and the weather is always different.

It's time to bring the blog out of hibernation. Let's post where and when we're running or would like to run. Feel free to comment or email me.

This week, CVL will be busy with Foxfield and the Dogwood Parade.

I'd like to run downtown early, so I can score a parking place and then go to City Market and then the parade. Let me know if you're interested or if you are running elsewhere.

***This just in (12:15 Tuesday)...There's a race this weekend to benefit Meals on Wheels of Fluvanna! Thanks for the link, Anonymous! http://mealsonwheelsfluvanna.org/Meals%20on%20Wheels%205k.pdf
