march 2011 race schedule

the schedule for march includes a new twist - getting back to the track. ironically, while i wanted to run the nyrr thursday night at the armory races this season, i just couldn't get there in january and february. in contrast, katie ran at the armory a handful of times this season with her winter track team! so, with one last opportunity on the boards, i'm going to make an effort to run at the front runners ny armory track meet on friday night (3/18)!

except for the st. patrick's day marathon, everything else on the schedule is a familiar event (including one of my all time favorite races, the wurtsboro mountain 30k). i'm looking forward to a return trip to van cortlandt park because my two previous visits there resulted in a 10k (thanksgiving) and half marathon (new year's day). this time around i'd like to finish all 4 loops for the full marathon! although, heading to van cortlandt park means that i'll have to miss another favorite race, the taconic st. patrick's day 10k/2 miler, scheduled for the same day :(

here's what the schedule looks like:

3/6 - caumsett park 50k
3/13 - st. patrick's day marathon
3/18 - front runners ny armory track meet
3/20 - spring equinox 8k
3/26 - wurtsboro mountain 30k
3/27 - boston blowout 30k

as always, if you're at any of these races - say hello!
