The 2012 Runner’s World Half & Festival Weekend

Happy Friday all!!!! Sorry for the lack of posts this week and next but I have some big things coming up plus I just started working on my Bachelor’s degree and I am attending FitBloggin next week!! I am just busy, busy this week and next but it will hopefully settle down after that…..or not because I will still be marathon training.

I am excited to announce that I will be attending the inaugural Runner’s World Half and Festival October 20 and 21st in Bethlehem Pennsylvania thanks to FitFluential and Runner’s World!!! I wanted to sign up for this race since it was announced but due to a work obligation I didn’t think it would be possible but I was able to get coverage for that weekend which has freed me up to be able to participate in the Half-Marathon on Sunday.

About the weekend as quoted from the Runner’s World Website:

“Runner’s World is pleased to kick off the first-ever Runner’s World Half Marathon and Running Festival in our own backyard in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The festival weekend on October 19-21 will include:

Seminars
Live music
Running films
Appearances by three-time Olympian Shalane Flanagan
Prerace dinner with Runner’s World editors
10K, 5K, and kids races (Saturday)
Half marathon (Sunday)

HQ for the weekend will be on the grounds of the beautifully refurbished Bethlehem Steel Mill and ArtsQuest SteelStacks campus.”

FTC: I received a race entry courtesy of Runner’s World and FitFluential. I was not compensated in any other way.

I am looking forward to having a fun-filled running weekend!!!! If you would would like to participate in any or all of the races you can use the code “BLOGGER18” to save 10%.
