Virtual Racers

I ran this race this weekend and achieved a goal + a PR!

My favourite race...mostly hard pack gravel trails, some hard pack dirt and a bit of asphalt paths. This is as close as I could get to recreating this route. They have a map on thier website (hand drawn) that I used - it's off a bit but you get the idea. Be sure to view it in satelite view - very pretty area. All in all a great run. Wish it was closer to my home! CHECK OUT THE ELEVATION!

This is what I try to run at least once a week. It's hard because the concrete and brick sidewalks are hell on my shins and ankles. But it's a fun route otherwise with neat people to watch and often street performers. Also, at crosswalks, I get a chance to catch my breath and stretch a bit.

Look at that fun hill at mile 12! Great run just north of Nashville, TN.

Olympisch stadionloop - local 10k race in Amsterdam

This is a 5 K course I often use for training from my home. I did my virtual 5K races for september 2006 and january 2007 here.

...and the track just east of the finish is the athletics club where I train... bas
