Race goals for summer 2007
This long weekend is the perfect time to think about your next walking goals. Today I received a newsletter from the organizers of the Oakville Half Marathon on September 3. Apparently the price increases today...so I strongly urge you to sign up now! It's is an excellent goal to work toward over the summer and many of you starting courses with us this week could definitely accomplish it. Also, if you take a look at our training schedule for this event, you'll notice that on August 18, the very weekend of the Midsummer Night's Run (15k Walk), 16k is the training distance for the Oakville Half! And, if you let me know today, I can get you registered in the Midsummer Night's 15 Walk for the early bird price of $49. Double savings for two great summer races in one day! It must be walking karma.
If you've got some other ideas for great walking races, comment here! We're always open to suggestion.

The Columbus 1/2 and Full Marathon on October 21st sounds like a great walkers race. On their site they say 'they value its walkers and include them in the festivities and pageantry of the marathon'. They start the Walkers in the 1/2 and Full at 7:00 am and runners start at 8:00 am. They have separate results for both 1/2 and full walkers. My husband has run the Columbus Full twice and said it is a great route and race. The Olympic trials have been held on this course. Check out the website at www.columbusmarathon.com. It is the week before Casino Niagara (which by the way is now called the Niagara Falls International Marathon)but if you are looking for a change and not a far drive and a new challenge, this may be it.
