REGISTERED!

I had such a great time at the Pacers St Pats Race on Sunday, it got me thinking about what other Pacers races I could run this season.

I’ve been really happy with my running and I was thrilled with my 10K pace so I’m looking forward to my VA Beach Half on the 20th, but beyond that I wanted to add to my calendar.

For the first time since I moved to Northern VA I’m both free and in shape to run the GW Parkway Classic 10M – which takes places is my old ‘hood/T’s current ‘hood. This race is such a staple in the DC/NoVA running community (along with the Cherry Blossom 10 miler and MCM – both of which I have done).

Yesterday morning I went to review the registration page with plans to register after my half, but then yesterday afternoon I was reading my friend A’s blog. A is taking a break from running after a killer fall and winter season of kicking ass and taking names which lead to some fatigue and minor injury. In her post A mentioned all the spring races that she was going to bow out of, so I figured I’d shoot her an email offering to take her Parkway Classic bib off her hands since she could transfer through the end of the month. A super generously offered to give me the bib (I just needed to cover the $20 transfer fee) and she was thrilled to have the bib going into the hands of a first time runner of this race.

The transfer process was super easy, just completed it this morning!
