I have actually looked at this race before. I think I might do it. Berwick is about 90 minutes away for us, and if I am not injured, I can often place in my age group. That's one of the benefits of being old - not too much competition! :) I don't mind the hills, but hate it when a race begins late.Meditations in Motionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08406003928113822953noreply@blogger.com
