I recently went on a splurge for events and signed up for about 5. Here is a preview of what I will be doing in the upcoming months:
October 6th, 2013 at 7:30 AM:
The Oral-B Glide Floss (No, really) Bridge-to-Bridge. Weird that they would actually put the completely non-tangential race sponsor's name in the title of the event. Not "brought to you by" or anything in that nature. This race will start at the Ferry Building on the Embarcadero and go all the way to the Golden Gate Bridge. I will be doing this double. The race itself is a 10k course. I will be doubling it by running to the GGB and back to Justin Herman Plaza. You're all welcome to join me or come cheer me on in a tutu. No exceptions for the tutu if you choose to do the latter.
Sunday, October 20th at 7:30 AM:
Morgan Hill Half Marathon. Located in...Morgan Hill, a beautiful rural area South of San Jose, this course goes around the town and past Uvas Reservoir. Lots of hills and great views early in the morning. The course is one giant loop.
Saturday, November 2nd 9:00 AM:
Envirosports Stinson Beach Trail Half-Marathon. This will be my third time running this event but my first time only doing the half. As stated before, recovering runners, like alcoholics, need to be tempted every once in a while just to prove their willpower. This event is the proverbial bottles I keep the cabinet. Beautiful course that runs up the Mt. Tamalpais trails and through the redwood forests and along the Dipsea Trail. Probably the only race you'll ever do that actually starts on the beach. Winner take home a rubber chicken.
Sunday, November 24th at 7:00 AM: The Men's Health (That's more like it) Urbanathlon. 11 Miles of running and jumping over cars, climbing over buses and crawling under caution tape. Take a look at the picture on the left. It's about to get real. Starts at Willie Mays Plaza in SF and ends at Crissy Field. This is a way to explore the city in a way you never have.

Sunday, December 8th at 7:00 AM: Sacramento International Marathon. The fastest marathon in the country due to its relatively flat course. This will be my fourth time competing in this race but the first time I will only be doing the half. I expect to get a sub 1:18 on this. Hopefully. Course will be starting in Folsom and ending at the State Capitol. Hopefully Jerry and Sutter Brown will be there.
