Hey everyone. Thanks for playing along & answering my recent
questions. If you missed the answers to the last question ("what can
you not run without,") check it out here:
http://www.goerieblogs.com/sports/runnersnotes/2012/05/we-asked-what-is-your-must-have-item-for-a-run/.

Now, for this week's question: What is your favorite local (Erie area)
race & why is it your favorite?

Answers will be posted on my Runner's Notes blog on Friday. :-)

The Erie Marathon, the whole vibe at that race is incredible.  Well organized and very inspiring watching people cross the finish line.  The look of accomplishment on thier faces is priceless.

The Turkey Trot. Great race and it offers both  5k and 10k options!

Definitely the Turkey Trot. The huge crowd, the different race
options, and the after race party all make it really fun!
Plus it helps you feel SLIGHTLY less guilty about pigging out later in
the day!

  1. The Erie Half Marathon. Great race, great picnic. One of two times a year I eat a hot dog.
  2. The Art & Sole 5k. I own priceless art thanks to this race.
  3. The Turkey Trot. Bigger is better. No substitute for that vibe on Thanksgiving morning.
Thanks Heather.

Turkey Trot is great but the SafeNet Boo Run Run, which is part trail
run, part beach run and part road race - with costumes - is my
favorite local race.

Hi Heather,

My favorite race is the ERC New Years Day 5 Mile Race. It's an inspiration to me to start a new year off with something I love (running) and to experience it with so many like minded people. I also enjoy the thrill of the extreme weather conditions. It could be anywhere between a balmy 70 degrees or an arctic 20 below. I also enjoy the fact that non runners think we're nuts!

Thanks,
Mike Lawrence
