Run for the One

There is a new race this weekend in Wilson that has a 5k and Half Marathon options. The is called Run for the One. June of course is not an ideal day to race a half marathon, but many of us would be running that far anyway, so why not sign up and support a race instead!
  • Time: The half marathon starts at 7:30 am. The 5k & 1M is at 7:45 a.m.
  • Weather: Even with an early start it will still be a hot day. The low is 74.
  • Cost: Registration fee is $40 for the half
  • Course: Flat, Shaded, Flat, and Flat. (Map)
  • Website: http://www.wcsac.org/ (Very Limited Information)
  • Awards: No medals for half marathon finishers. Not certain about other awards.
  • Size: Less than 50 runners are currently registered for the Half.

So if you plan to run of Saturday, come join us in Wilson! Who is planning on running?

    Jon and I are registered... gotta support a home town race!

    It's great that we have a local Half Marathon. Sure wish they would have promoted this race.... that's a sad number of entrants!

    there is another race option not too far away in Petersburg, va. Its called the twilight 3.5 miler. Its at 7:00 at night. Its the best race I've been to for kids. They have a quarter mile and mile race. They split the ages up real good. And, the give really nice trophies for all the kids as long as they finish. Its a tri-cities road runner race

    I will be there for the half...hoping that my recent lack of motivation and training doesn't come back to bite me.

    I'm planning to run (the half I think). It will be a last minute call on which race but I'll definitely be there.
