I love Pacers' new medals thing!! I wants a medal!

would anyone feel crazy enough to attempt their Four Courts 4-miler the day before the St Paddy's Day 8k?? I am tempted to go for it. Definitely would require a good amount of training the next couple of weeks, not sure I'm in any position to get there by then BUT if anyone else wanted to try it I would probably see if I could. I want the points!! also if we do the Four Courts 4-miler, one of the races at the Pacers Running Festival (half marathon/half marathon relay/"quarter marathon"), and the Clarendon Day 5k, we could get the "orange line special" medal!
I'd also like to do the Earth Day 5k (April 18 in Silver Spring Sara!), and maybe a couple of the crystal city 5k friday runs? although we tried to do that last year and it never worked out.. there are a bunch of the others I'd like to do but they're a bit far in advance to plan for now.

ReplyDeleteO my word!!! You are hard core!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't have my calendar with me, so I can't say for sure which ones I'd be down for, but I'm pretty sure I'd be cool with most of them. I'm seriously going to kick some racing butt this year. *race face*
I don't know about the 4 Courts 4-miler the day before the 8k. That seems rough. Let me think about that one.
Oy. I can do virtually none of these! I invited Blakers to visit St Paddy's weekend for his birthday so I dun really wanna be racing twice....Pacer's festival is on my mum's b-day, Clarendon Day I'm at a wedding.
ReplyDeleteI'd only do Earth Day 5k if Amber is not doing Fodderstack this year. Are yewww Aber? I wanna do it!
I could do Crystal City twilighter or maybe one of those 5k fridays, i just hate trying to get over there after work.....
Sorry, just realized how negative I sounded.
ReplyDeleteThe medal system is really awesome! I like the orange line one and the 26.2 one too. I'm just pewped out that it doesn't jive with my schedule more!
and Yes, Rachel is mucho hardcore.
waaahhh I want to do fodderstack! definitely the same weekend as Lit Fest AGAIN. (I think I misspoke on a different thread, saying lit fest would conflict with the rockville race maybe? well no, it's conflicting with fodderstack)
ReplyDeleteneed new job now!!
Ohhh Silver Spring Earth 5K that benefits the Nature Coversancy? Very cool. I'd be up for that. Hopefully by then we'll have mild spring weather.
ReplyDeleteYou guys say such bad things about Fodderstack being grueling. Haha. Makes me not so enthused to do that!
Yeah lemme know if you guys wanna do that one cuz the price will go up after the 15th. I will bring Jessica Woodburn along.
