ROCK N ROLL ST. LOUIS I have never been to St. Louis, so obviously when I saw that Rock n Roll St. Louis fit into my race calendar, I knew it had to happen. It will be a whirlwind trip with only about 30 hours there, so I won't have much time to get to see everything. Obviously, a must see for me is the Gateway Arch. It is a good thing I have a 13.1 mile tour by foot scheduled to get to see the city.

ATLANTA 10 MILER The Atlanta 10 Miler is one of my absolute favorite Atlanta races! There are numerous reasons why this race ranks in my "must run" in Atlanta but 2 of my top reasons are (1) it is a fairly unique distance (especially in Atlanta) and (2) the course support is AMAZING! This will be my 3rd year running this race and I cannot wait for October 23rd to come around! The Atlanta 10 Miler is also part 2 of Atlanta Track Club's Triple Peach. While the Triple Peach Challenge is sold out, there is still registration available for the 10 Miler as well as the 5K! For more information, go to the Atlanta Track Club website. |
