Weekly walking/running roundup
What I’m doing: Probably catching up with some buddies in Anne Arundel County. Maybe interviewing people at a race on Sunday.
Why: Last weekend was the running festival, and next weekend will be the Marine Corps Marathon, so this weekend is the best week to take things easy and meet for a relaxed Saturday run/brunch.
What else I recommend: If you just ran the marathon or half-marathon, I recommend not racing at all. Assuming that's not the case, I like the student-public-hybrid nature of the Raven Classic Cross Country 5K (in list below). I would also be interested in how the Goddard Running and Orienteering Club Fall 10K turns out, especially for anyone using it as an offbeat tune-up for the Marine Corps 10K. For a Friday option, there's the MPRC 5K Walk/Run.
Other options: Black Hill 10K, 5th Annual Halloween 5K Run & One Mile Fun Walk, 2-person relay, Baltimore Crossroads @95 5K CrossCountry Challenge, St. George’s Dragon Run, Little Falls Biathlon, Run with Miss Darby 5K, Neal Elementary Harvest for the Hungry 5K, Capital Hospice "Celebration of Life" 5K Walk/Run, George's Creek watershed Association Halloween 5K & 1 Mile Walk, MSD 5K, Inaugural Raven Classic Cross Country 5K,, Hyattsville Volunteer Fire Department 5 Mile Run, St Ursula's 5K, Chaka Barefoot DC 5K Run/Walk, Fall into St Michaels 5K Run/Walk

About this list: By default, I make an effort to list all advertised, publicly accessible Maryland running and walking events within the next week. If you want to highlight a race outside of Maryland (or just want to make sure your race is included), please send me an e-mail with the subject line “Race listings.” The message must include a direct link to your race’s webpage, and it must be submitted at least two weeks before the event.
