    1. Thanks Stacey! My parents live in Pennsylvania, love it there! I plan to do the Runners World Race Weekend in 2013, if all the stars align! It was the same weekend as Hershey this year, so I missed it!

    1. I am doing 4 in the Spring and 4 in the Fall, plus 5 (or more) Virtuals during the year. At least, that is was I planned so far. Who knows what else I might schedule! I want to do the Runner;s World Weekend, which would be 5 for the Fall.
