Manchester Road Race : Official Thread

i'm running it!
My husband, and my 2 nieces will run it w/ me.  It's a fun family event for the holiday!!  my husband will run his own race (he's a little more competitive), and i will stick w/ the nieces (18 y.o., & 19 y.o. college girls!). 
Luckily for me their mom doesn't run, and watches my kids for me from the side lines.
afterwards we don't feel so guilty eating a big meal!

I"m running it too. Never done it before cause of weariness of huge crowds. This year taking the chance though.

Its a blast, around 10,000 runners strong. One of the oldest and best races in the country. This will be my 7th.

I'm bailing on Manchester to do Madison instead. I heard Manchester is fun though. I grew up in Madison and actually would prefer something smaller than Manchester so I can run it and not walk the first half mile with a big crowd.

To finish!!
with daylight savings and the colder weather - i haven't been out as much.  i hope to run w/out walking - unless the crowds make me ; )
.. then feel good about eating a turkey meal!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!
