  11. I ran it last year and had a great race. The course was super boring, so I would love to try the new course!

    Thanks for letting me know about your giveaway! I have been horrible about keeping up with blogs lately. Heck, I haven't even updated my own blog!

  14. So I live in Richmond...and I do hate flying, but I would TOTALLY head out there for this opportunity!! I'd probably see if I could upgrade it to a marathon though, so that I could do three marathons in three months. Yep, here we go, getting carried away....................! Pump the brakes, Katherine.
