For anyone who’s never done it, its a pretty awesome experience. I gave it a shot last year and was impressed with how many people were there to cheer the runners on. There were also several bands along the way to add some awesome running music.

There were even homeless people giving their encouragement. Richmond rocks.

I ran it last year and had a blast… i am bummed out because I had knee surgery in october and still haven’t fully recovered… plus the 20 lbs I’ve put on since is really not helping. But the race is awesome. Wish I was doing it this year. Richmond does rock.

I have been doing it for the last two years and its an awesome experience. Unfortunately the training team i joined dont register you for the event and I was under that impression. So now even though I trained for it, I cant run in it. Called sportsbacker today and they said no dice. I dont know if it is allowed but in case anyone would like to give up their registeration of 10k, I would be very happy to take it off their hands.
