Jingle Bell 5k: There are two races this weekend that may interest you. The first is a Jingle Bell 5k in Raleigh on Saturday to raise money for Arthritis research. Jingle Bell runs are always fun, as you get to tie bells to your shoes. This event begins at 9:00 am at St Mary's School on Hillsborough street. 
Online registration is closed, but you can sign up on race day.Reindeer Dash for Cash: The other race is in Greenville, and would be a great training run for your half marathon. The Reindeer Dash for Cash is a 10 miler and 5k that runs on Sunday at 2:00 p.m. This gives you time to still make it to church before getting to the race. This event is being held to honor Captain Christopher S. Cash, who died in service to his country in Iraq. Proceeds from the race will go into a scholarship fund in his honor. This event drew 380 runners last year making it the largest race in Greenville.
As a reminder, I try to list upcoming races in the right column of the blog. Please let me know if you want others added.
This is a 2:00 pm race on Sunday. Anyone interested in making a road trip to Greenville?
ReplyDeleteThe Miller clan will be busy at the Rocky Mount Christmas Parade at 3:00pm. Have heard it is a good race. Chris Cash was a good friend of some friends of mine in Greenville--great cause in his name!!!! Good luck, Michael.
ReplyDeleteThis was a fun race. Angela and Mike both ran as well. Angela and I did the 10 mile, and Mike the 5k.
