If the first week of January is any indication, a long cold winter still remains. But don’t let that get in your way for starting off the year in the right direction. Use these races, clinics and running groups to keep you motivated and sharpen your skills for the upcoming race season.

We're going to be at the Oatmeal 5K tomorrow. My husband is running his FIRST RACE EVER, and the kids and I will be cheering him on. Come on out, it's going to be fantastic!
oh that *is* fantastic! Got some obligations in the morning around that time otherwise I would be out there testing the old legs. It would be an interesting benchmark compared to last year when I was fit.
Todd, you going to be at the Fast Flurry-ous? Pretty sure you ran it last year if I recall.
I haven't committed yet, but would like to! Will you make it up again? Hope to see you there
I'm planning on running it, hope to see you there.
