After reflecting back on lessons learned from a not so great race, it seems like the perfect time to look ahead to this year’s race calendar. Ah the race calendar…so many races to consider. If only there were infinite time and funds!
So here’s what I’m thinking (hoping) so far:
March 29th: Cambridge City Run 5-miler 
April 12th: Cherry Blossom 10 Miler 
April 18th: BAA 5K 
May 24th: Boston Run to Remember 5 miler 
June 7th: Newport 10 miler 
June 23rd: BAA 10K ** This one is a big question mark because I’ll be working a big event for my job the day before and sometimes late June in Boston is just too hot!
The second half of the year will be all about the half marathon and some #RocknBlog fun!
I’ve narrowed down the #RnR options to Virginia Beach, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Savannah and San Antonio. The dates for Philly and Brooklyn have not been finalized yet…believe it or not the Pope is playing a role in holding up the Philly date! So for now I stalk watch the website and Facebook for an announcement. There may be another race or two of shorter distances in the fall, but I want to get these figured out first.
So I’ve got a pretty good mix of favorite repeats and some new destinations
What? They’re giving precedence to the Pope over a race?
; )
Looks like a great lineup–two 10-milers is always a good thing! Can’t wait to meet you at CB. Let me know when you have your trip schedule put together.

I think they need to just send the Pope a bib and invite him to run 🙂
It will be fun to finally meet – looking forward to it!
I’m jelly of your 10 milers and your BAA action. What? Narrowed down to ONLY 5 RnR races?? Haha!

Can you tell I’m having a little problem narrowing down my RnR choices? LOL!
love your race calendar! I did the marathon sports race many years ago when I lived in Boston! I’m thinking of coming back up to visit my best friend and run the BAA 10K.

I forgot you lived up here! Would love to connect on one of your visits back here!
Looks like you have some great races planned out. I always wanted to do the Philly rnr too!

I’ve heard such good things about the Philly race – I can’t wait for a date to be finalized!
We seriously have to make plans around CUCB.

Yes we do!
Looks like a great schedule so far! I will be doing Boston’s Run to Remember Half on the 24th! I’m excited as it will be my first race in Boston! 🙂

Sharon you picked a great one to run in Boston. It was my first half ever and still one of my faves!
I’m curious when RnR Brooklyn will be and what the course will look like. I’ll def make a spring visit to Boston to see my sisters…deciding whether I want to run BAA 10K again (so fun) or another half in MA, NH or Maine 🙂

I’m really curious about Brooklyn too – the old RnR was a 10K so I’m not sure how a half will be laid out, but I think a NY race could be fun! Let me know if you decide to run the BAA 10K.
