2023 Race Calendar

[jdr0p]

Okay - who is doing what, and where?

Right now, I will be doing two Rock & Roll half marathons - Vegas in Feb and SLC in Aug. Anyone else going to those?

 

[Laurent]

Due to a rough few years, I have not made plans for any races yet.

But, I would love to run one of the majors if my body would allow it.

 

[Briana]

I'll be doing the Atlanta Half Marathon and then the Boston Marathon. After that is definitely TBD... but would love to do the NYC marathon if I can swing it!!!

 

[Hannah]

Thinking of doing a couple of trail races! Maybe a 27k in April, and potentially a marathon in August. TBD! Both in Colorado.

I haven't run a half in a few years, so I want to do at least two of those in '23. Thinking about doing my first marathon at age 62, but I've been thinking about that every day for the past decade, so we'll see...(-;

I’m going to look into Rock & Roll halfs. Sounds fun! Are these races you do each year? (And, if yes - please tell me why you love them!!)

I love that!!! Let us know what you decide (on the halfs and on a marathon!)

No time like the present!

On my calendar for 2023 so far is Kalamazoo Marathon (half) and Charlevoix Marathon (half) plus all 4 races on Mackinac Island (5mi, 10k, 8mi, half). There are some National Park (U.S.) races that sound fun… might try to plan a trip out west around some of those. Anyone doing any races in Michigan or any of the National Park races?

National Park races sound really amazing. I've never done any but you have me thinking!

I hadn’t even heard about them until a few months ago but there are so many cool ones. Here’s the best site I’ve found for them, in case you want to check them out!

Well, unless work is keeping me off the road. Life would be so much easier if I was smart enough to have been born rich and could just train 18 hours a day!

Thank goodness you don’t actually need to train 18hrs a day! There are a lot of us here with rigorous work and personal life schedules. You definitely learn to make time for what’s important! My training is a priority for me as it’s part of keeping a healthy mindset, which sets me up for showing up the way I want and need to for the rest of my work/family obligations. If training for a marathon is a priority right now, you will find the time. You’re the only one who decides what’s top on the list!

I'd say my wife has a bit of say in that too . Thanks for the encouragement!

The 1/2 at Saguaro West in Tucson looks great. Right down the street for me. Who are these people? I looked at the website, but couldn't find and "about us" link
