Goals for 2008

It always helps to be running for a purpose. If there are races that you can shoot for, it gives an added reason to get out of bed and lace up the shoes. Living in the toolies there aren't a ton of races to choose from, so some of these have become an annual event.

Here's my plan of races for 2008.

The Two Town Ten Trillion Nanometer Race July 4th weekend in Nashwauk. It's a run between Keewatin and Nashwauk put on by the football team. That explains why this 10k isn't a full 10k, but it's always a fun run.

The Tall Timber Days 5k/10k race in Grand Rapids on August 2nd . I'll probably do the 10k, but the 5k is much more popular.

The Mora 1/2 Marathon on August 16th. This race will let me know if the marathon in October is doable.

The Whistlestop Marathon in Ashland Wisconsin on October 11. This race allows you to drop to a 1/2 marathon up until about a month before the race, which is great if I'm biting off more than I can chew.
