This weekend is the Melbourne and Beaches Music Marathon here on the Space Coast. The marathon and half marathon will take place on Sunday. On Saturday, they  offer a 5K and an 8K race. I was planning on entering the 8K, but money is a bit tight right now and I didn’t think it was very wise to pay the race fee. Since I still wanted to challenge myself, I printed off the race route and ran tomorrow’s race this morning. I wish I could say it was a beautiful morning, but the fog was thick! It was still a great run, and I was pleased with my time. If you want to challenge yourself, you can find a list of races in the Central Florida area at The Running Zone. If you live outside of the area, try finding a running store in your neck of the woods and see if they can help you. Happy racing!

PS – I checked out the results for the race and, with my time, I would have placed 6th in my age group! 🙂
