Bucket List

Not without trying, I have yet to be able to create a list of "must-run races." I've thought about it, but when it comes down to it, I thought that any destination race I choose would be just that..selected for the location, rather than the race, and really, I'm not quite ready to plan my few vacations a year around careful rest and eating, as well as excessive exercise..let's be honest. So all that being said, it was just as surprising to me as it will be to you that when I received the email announcing the registration details for the 2011 Nike Women's Marathon (which is coupled with a half, of course), I felt my heart skip a beat. (For those who don't know, it should be clearly stated that rather than being given a medal when you finish, a specially designed Tiffany's necklace is your take away!). It's shocking to me that maybe I DO, after all, have a race to go onto my list and receiving this email solidified that! It should go to say that I think the idea of a women's running event is really super awesome and while we're at it, let's add a few more of them to my must-run list!
