With 9 races to choose from this weekend, every runner should be out there hitting the pavement! Races range from the 5K to a half-day relay and support a variety of causes including domestic violence, Lion’s Club, and church ministries! Its a smorgasbord of running.<\/p>\n

I plan on racing this weekend although I haven’t decided for sure where yet. I think if my wife wasn’t working we’d go down to the Englishton race and enjoy the festival. Maybe I’ll end up in Hartford City, I could use a fast 5K right now.<\/p>\n
