No New York Marathon for me in 2012, but Spartan Race is on!

So, I just heard yesterday that I was not a “winner” in the ING New York Marathon 2012 lottery. I didn’t have high hopes, being that my chances of actually gaining entry into the race was rather slim. But it’s perhaps a good thing. I haven’t been  running outdoors much on account of the persistent cold and rainy weather. But anyway, I may just join that half marathon here in Montreal come September.

In the meantime, I have Spartan Race to which to look forward.  June 10, Mt. Tremblant, 10.30 am heat, it’s on! If you didn’t know, Spartan Race Sprint is a 5km obstacle race course, often featuring lots of mud, roping climbs and a wall of fire for a finish line. I am so looking forward to this race. I’ll be up against my good friend Julie. Watch out!
