Yo run gang,
 It's time to plan some summer "Pure Michigan" running, road trips! You
can play down the "Running" aspect of the trip to the non-running family
members to fire them up for a great getaway, perhaps even act surprised
that there happens to be a race on the same dates and location of your
adventure, even if they call you out on it, the "Pure Michigan"
experience will soon make them forget.
The summer is long and the races are many, a bit of planning today
will make it happen. A couple great choices:
- On June 23rd, I'll be headed to Charlevoix, my favorite
northern Michigan town; join me for 5K, 10K, the half or full marathon (Charlevoix Marathon/Half/10K/5K). While in Charlevoix, find your way to Mt. McSauba Beach, a hidden gem, the perfect post-race place to chill.
- On August 4th I'll be at the Legend Trail Run (runlegend.com), just north of Lansing, camping sells out early so plan now, or, make it a day trip escape.
Run Michigan, --Randy Step, an admitted obsessed runner who loves to run in Pure Michigan!
PS: It's not too late to enter the 39th annual Dexter to Ann Arbor half marathon, 10k, or 5k on June 3rd.
It's one of Michigan's most scenic courses along the Huron River. Info and Registration at d2aa.com.
Bill
Rogers, four time winner of the Boston and New York City marathons,
will be at Running Fit on Jackson Rd. Friday June 1 from 11:00AM until
12:30 to sign autographs and take pictures. He will also be at
the race expo June 2nd at Ann Arbor Pioneer High school. There will be
kids races at the expo and every kid wins a medal. Pacers will pace
you to your goals in the half marathon. Tech shirts to all and medals
for half marathon finishers. After the run join in the taste of Ann
Arbor festivities in downtown.
Aardvark Contest:
the Aardvark is the official mascot of the Dexter Ann Arbor Run and
at 6:30 AM Race Day Judges will give a $50.00 gift card to the best
Aardvark costume. (You don't need to run in the costume, but why not!).
PS: I'm getting excited to see 1,500 people running dressed as the Statue of Liberty!
Please join me for this nonsense on June 16th! Sign up now, first 1,500 get the costume! Enter at cantonlibertyrun.com
