Fall running events are popular
I enjoy seeing posts on social media of local runners at races they have run. It made me think about my running days and the races I entered over the years. The posts came from different races in towns and cities throughout the United States. I started to wonder how far a runner would travel to enter a race. It is an easy entry if the race is in San Marcos. This past Saturday the Blue Santa’s 5 Miler and 5K race was held out at the soccer fields. Next Saturday, September 30th, the Kiwanis Pumpkin Dash 5K will be held out at Country Estates. This is a popular race with not a large entry number so the prospect of winning an award is good.
