Upcoming runs

Hello! TGIF, right?!

My friend and I have been searching for a half marathon to run for a couple months now and finally decided on one: the Temecula half marathon.  While the half marathon course is mentioned to be a bit challenging because of the hills, the scenic back country course is sure to provide a beautiful distraction.  Plus, pay an extra $10 at registration and not only will your $10 be going to Temecula Valley Slow Food’s School Garden Project, but you get to enjoy some wine tasting after your run! 🙂

While looking at upcoming races, I found this!

Did you know one out of every six American children wonder when their next meal will be?  This 10k race benefits the Feed Foundation, whose mission is to end hunger- “one child at a time.”  Here’s how the race works.  Visit  www.run10feed10.com and click “run registration” and ten meals will instantly be provided to children in your event community.   Next, spread the word!  Tell your friends about the cause and raise as much as you can.  The goal is for each participant to raise $100…that’s only $10 per friend you pester! 🙂  Lastly, go to CROWDRISE.COM/WOMENSHEALTHRUN10FEED10 and donate or fundraise for additional money.

So there’s not a Run 10 Feed 10 event near you?  No worries, you can still participate! Sign up to run your own 10K and the money from your registration and fundraising will go to metropolitan areas near you!

So…what races/events will you be doing this fall/winter? 🙂
