Running to the Edge

We registered for a couple of cool running events this spring / early summer:

Fiesta Mission 10K
April 17, 2010
Held the first Saturday of Fiesta in San Antonio, this race winds along part of the historic Mission Trail. Should be a nice, flat course, and a festive atmosphere.

Edge 2 Edge Half-Marathon
June 13, 2010
Our friend Bjoern found this race that takes place on Vancouver Island, BC. Unfortunately, he and Jen won't be able to join us, but we're excited to combine running with travel to a completely new destination! Part of the run is through the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve. Sounds nice, right? An article about the race said we should keep our eyes peeled for sea lions and whales. Um...OKAY!

How about you guys? Ever mixed fitness with travel?

I'd said that the only marathon I would ever run would be the Bordeaux Marathon. Twenty-six point two miles through Bordeaux wine region with a list of chateaus that will be doing tastings along the route. Costumes encouraged. Finishing optional.

That sounds awesome and dangerous. And extra long. :D
