Asheville Half Marathon..........Sweet Potato Pancake......Mimosas..Micro Brewery...Donunt..Cupcake..Wine...Whitewater Rafting ...Pajama Party... Oh yeah and Running Weekend

Now you might think we went up there to run a tough Half Marathon full of Hills and you would be only partially right the run is tough but the nice thing about the run is the tempertures are cool, 50 degrees at the start, and your time doesn't matter because no one expects you to run a good time so you just enjoy each others company and some great scenery...... But before AND after the run you get to enjoy each others company AND great FOOD and DRINK and SCENERY and ADVENTURE!!!  This a race we should have more partication in!!!  This Race is close so it easy to get to by car pooling or flying (you can fly up for the price of driving one way!)  Great for a long weekend or even a short one!  This is a great Road Trip!!!!
