TT: Spring Racing Plans


This week’s topic is: What Are Your Spring Running Plans and/or Racing Schedule?

With several races already on my schedule, I plan to run 3x during the work week (usually only 3 miles) and then a longer run on the weekend.

Here a few of the races that I may run (if they are in bold, I’ve already signed up):

  • 03-24-24 – Shamrock Shuffle (5m)

I’ve run this race many times including 2022 so maybe if I take a later train to NYC that day 

  • 04-13-24 – Helderberg to Hudson Half Marathon

 YES, as it’s a local downhill half where I’ve had success in the past

  • 04-21-24 – Autism 5k (as a STEM mentor)
Hero 5K for Autism 2024

A new race but I’ll only be participating in it as a mentor to new runners from the STEM program.

  • 04-27.24 – Bacon Hill Bonanza 5k

 I love this race because there’s fresh chocolate milk and you can win an apple pie!! Maybe.

  • 05-11-24 – Summer Smith 5k

The race has returned to its original date and route. I’ve run it each year as it is dedicated to a former STEM runner who died so maybe

  • 05-18-24 – RBC Brooklyn Half Marathon

YES!! Will the 3rd time be a charm and not rain?

  • 05-26-24 – Miles on the Mohawk 10 Miler

Another local favorite and 10 miles is my preferred distance so maybe

  • 06-01-24 – Run for Women 5k

YES. Of course. It’s the only race that I’ve run every year. Year 17 (with one being virtual)!!!

  • 06-15-24 – Valley Cats Father’s Day Home Run 5k

I got talked into this race a few years ago and it’s fun so maybe.

Happy Running! What are your spring running/racing plans? Please share.

  1. Wow, I thought Jenn had a lot of races lined up, but you’re the winner (as usual!) I know, these races all sound really fun so it’s hard to pass any of them up.
    I signed up for a race Memorial Day weekend!!!!! Details coming soon…

  2. I love that you love running races!
    I would have had a 30k this coming Sunday – a perfect training session for London. But as we know, injuries sometimes get in the way…

    I thought you were going to tell us about your New York half today! I saw on Strava that it went well!

  8. Looks like a great line up! There are a few races I am considering but I need to figure out my schedule. We have alot going on over the next few months so I am not sure if its fair to throw some races into the mix.
