2019 Race Plans

I've been slowly putting together my race plans for the year and registering for races.

The year started off with the Peanut Butter Chip Chase 5k in Temple, NH . This is a fun charity race that is all hills. I took it easy, met a horse and laughed my way through the race with a good friend.

A week later the Freeze Your Buns series started and my husband joined me. Sadly due to a snow & ice store the second race was canceled. There are 3 remaining in the series.

List of races I want to do with check boxes. I'll type out the races at the bottom of the blog post.

Everything with a Pink R has been registered for, the rest I'll register for as my budget allows.

I'm undecided about running Baystate or CHAD. CHAD gets me Granite Runner Status, but Baystate Gets me Mill Cities Double jacket.

I'm standing in front of a window next to a table. I'm wearing
a pink tank that say Miles Change You and a pink Gym Girl
Ultra skirt. 
Along with New Hampshire Grand Prix, I'm going for Mountain Goat status to get a By Pass for Mount Washington. Other than those, Pineland Farms is a Running Festival, and I'm unsure about that one due to lodging expenses, or we risk freezing by camping. Taji 100 is that same as last year, a virtual race. If I succeed, I'll order a shirt. Hamster Wheel was a blast last year as a pacer, maybe his year I do it as a runner and aim for a 50k or 100k.

Thanks to my Ambassadorship, I'm all set for clothing with Skirt Sports, but I am likely going to need to get some new gear for this years racing schedule. I need to find a vest that fits properly and comfortably. I will need to get at least 1 pair of trail running sneakers. Currently my only sneakers are road running.  My Amazon Wishlist

I love Brooks Ghost 10, if anyone has any suggestions on trail sneakers that are close to those for drop and design, please share!
