Redondo Beach 5k/10k This Sunday
There are races all over the country, from 5k to full marathons, on Super Bowl Sunday. it is a great day to get out and participate in one of these local races. A bunch of us are running in the Redondo Beach 5k/10 this Sunday and a lot of SCR members are running at Surf City. The Redondo Beach race has over 10,000 participants and something for every age. Great stuff for the kids. Look for me and my camera and get there early. I will be registering on Sunday, you can too.
There are many benefits of racing even if you are just going out and doing it as a training run. Nothing replicates a race experience. If can use the race as a practice situation on a training day. I notice that even if you just go out to run it for fun, you tend to run a little faster. If you race, you get to see how you perform under all the different conditions. No matter what, you get to be out with a group of like-minded people.
Don’t forget all the calories that will be available that day and most of you are going to a party, even if you don’t like football. Burn some calories in the morning to help cover at least part of the party to come.
