I saw old posts about last years races, anyone doing them this year? I know it's early but I've never done cold-weather running and thought I'd start asking for feedback. I'd only be able to do the December one. I've been looking for an excuse to buy running tights =)

I'm in. I haven't registered yet but I'm going to soon. I love running in cooler/colder temps. My lungs respond well to the cooler so I don't have any issues with it. The PBGP is a decent little racing series to keep you motivated during the winter month. You should consider doing the HomeRun 5K/10K on 10/24. It is a great race out in Bernheim Forest and this time of year the park is beautiful. Overall, I think it might be my favorite race.

I haven't decided yet. I enjoyed it last year, and would recommend the series.

Unfortunately, I work every other weekend (grrr) and am scheduled for the 24th. I've heard lots of good things about the HomeRun though, so I'm leaning towards calling in for a half day. Plus, I'd like to check out Bernheim.

My work schedule is why I could only do the December Grand Prix race. BUT I'm off for all the Triple Crown 2010 dates \:D/

C.K., I just realized you shaved 35 mins off your time between the KDF Mini and the Evansville Half. That's crazy man, congrats!!

Thank you Joe, but now the goal is to get 12 more minutes off the half time. Need to get under two hours.
