It’s 4th of July week, which means it’s Red, White and Boom Half Marathon week!!! This is the first time I’ve done a half marathon during the week, and it’s throwing me for a loop (on top of not having a working microwave and a surge that I’m pretty sure blew as well). I leave tomorrow for Minneapolis and am praying to the weather gods that what ever thunder storms are happing can kindly hold off, or just leave the area all together. Fingers crossed!
Still haven’t signed up yet? Hurry up and use 18RWBBIBRAVE for 5% (good up until 6 pm TOMORROW or 50 uses for the 5k and 50 uses for the half marathon)!
If you’re traveling like I am to the race, be ready for some humidity and possibly some rain so hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! This morning, race staff emailed out about starting the race at flag condition yellow, so take a look at the EAS System of what to expect at each color flag
Wondering how much fun the race is?? Take a look at what happened in 2014 on their recap video too (credit: Twin Cities in Motion)
Wondering what type of 4th of July fun is going on? Head over to the Parks and Rec website to figure out what other fun is happening after you race
