Fall 2014

Postby gnu » Thu May 01, 2014 6:17 pm

I am starting to think ahead and contemplating a fall marathon this year, and it made me wonder what everyone else is up to! What's on your fall race calendar, or what are you contemplating?

I'm starting to think about a fall marathon, and if I do it will likely be Victoria on October 12. But I'm not sure yet- I'll get back to you in about a month. :)

Rocky Mountain Half Marathon in early September in Canmore, Alberta and the Harvest Half Marathon, most of it through a Fish Creek Park in south Calgary in early October are two I usually do.

LOL, yes, just a little bit. :) I'm happy to have done NYC but don't expect to do it again. There are so many great Fall marathons still on my list!

No fall marathon!

I'll be doing the Toronto 10 miler, and the Scotia bank half. I'm giving myself a break this summer - and then, HOPEFULLY, ramping it up for Boston.
