It's Official

countdown to race: 110 days
We are officially registered for the half marathon. Just in time. The price increased $10 yesterday.

Goodness these races can get pricey. A woman at work told me she use to run a race every weekend. I was not only impressed by her dedication but thought to myself, 'That would be expensive.'

Don't get me wrong, there are major benefits to participating in official runs. The monies go to a good cause, you get a sweet - or sometimes not so sweet - commemorative t-shirt and there are usually post-race goodies. Even still, at $20-$30 a pop, we limit ourselves to four races per year and try to really make them count.

Do you limit your races based on price?
Have you had any luck finding sponsors?
