Not Just Running Races....

I didn't want a full year to go by before I started up blogging again. I haven't quit training or racing (though this year has been minimal). I have been busy with another side of it-actually putting on two new trail races in the Santa Barbara area. It has been interesting and educational to see what goes into producing these events. I had no idea just how much work they were!

The Blue Canyon www.bluecanyontrailrace.com is the first race and is in June. Check out the website for specifics. I am heading up to Walnut Creek today to get my RD Certification through USAT. The course is 2 days and seems pretty interesting.

Can you believe how much rain we have been getting?? Lots of running in the rain, but I think that is always fun. I took the kids up to Figueroa on Friday to see the snow. It was snowing so much, my car was covered! We got to hike a bit in the snow and build a snowman. That's enough snow for me.
