Lake Minneola Half Marathon, 10K & 5K
Clermont, FL
Very well-organized race on a scenic, flat course. Lots of races claim to be flat, this one definitively is. Only issue is with the aid stations: there are very few …
Little Rock Marathon
Little Rock, AR
Whups, she did it again! Geneva (RD) has delivered yet another epic event. I'm not sure how she'll ever top the 2024 "dinosaur" theme, as hordes of runners descended on …
