small town, big race. SLO Marathon 2015 race ambassador
Super stoked to post that I’ve got a marathon on my calendar in 2015, and one that I’ll be ambassador-ing for: the San Luis Obispo Marathon in, appropriately, San Luis Obispo, CA, on Sunday, April 26, 2015.
It will be a fantastic opportunity to run in another part of CA that I haven’t really explored yet and, along the way, a good opportunity to connect with other runners who are training for the race (ambassadors and otherwise). If you’re eyeing a springtime marathon, half, or 5k, come on out… it’ll be fun. ๐
Here’s a description of the marathon course from the event website:
Sounds pretty good to me, and the course looks pretty fast, too.
And, in case you need a few other good reasons to come to California in late April, SLO is about a three hour drive (ish) from us in SJ (yay come visit!) and the town of SLO sounds like a wonderful place for a little runcation… again, from the website:
There is no better place to run a Marathon or Half Marathon and “The Best Way to See SLOTown is on Foot!” Come for the challenge, competition and camaraderie and stay to experience The SLO Life. We have:
- More than 250 wineries to explore
- Hearst Castle
- The Elephant Seals at San Simeon State Beach
- Miles and miles of hiking trails
- Gourmet Restaurants that use locally grown products (a Foodieโs Dream)
- Surfing, Stand-up Paddling and Kayaking
- Quaint, turn-of-the-century downtown area with modern shopping
- Bike-friendly lanes
- Hotels, B&Bโs and Inns within minutes of the race and attractions
- And so much more…
There you have it, friends. Come run fast at SLO. It’ll be fun. ๐
