It’s race time everyone! Umm, well, actually it has been race time for a while now. Been a little busy and the running posts tend to take a healthy bit of time getting the race day pictures processed, getting the swag photographed and then tracking down the official results. Because of that, the race posts tend to be pushed down the queue. Normally I’m a race or two behind but rarely 3 races, yet that is exactly where I am at ugh! Having just completed a training run for a race at the end of the month thought it would be prudent of me to get some of these popped off the queue or face falling 4 behind which is complete insanity. So, without further delay say it with me I-L-L
If you didn’t immediately respond with I-N-I then you did not attend my Alma Mater and for that I am sorry hehehe. Why a shot of my stadium’s scoreboard?…well, that happens to be where the first race of the season occurs. Each year most of the way through the month of April a hardy band of runners head to Champaign IL to test their meddle against the racing gods… and more ominous, the weather gods. They call this race the Illini Marathon and for those of us who like a little spice with our athletic competitions, the Illini I-Challenge.
