Heck yes! I was just talking to a friend about how I want to find more races that are not quite a half marathon. I don’t usually exist at permanent half marathon shape like I once was (I’m looking at you 2013 pre-baby body). But I like to join races whenever I hear about them and sometimes that means 2 weeks in advance. I can run a 10k any time, so let’s find some!
Well, I found something that sounds toasty and doable that I really want to try. I thought I’d post about it: the Hot Cider Hustle in Lansing, MI on October 15, 2016.
These are my top 5 things in the universe:
- Fall
- Pumpkin flavors
- Hot cider
- Hoodies
- Running
Okay, arguably you could add in things like my husband and adorable baby, sleep, and petting fuzzy animals, but still. I am a HUGE fan of fall. Doing a race mid-October for a hoodie and a hot beverage sounds perfect!
So if a mug and a hoodie and a nice autumnal run sound good to you, check out the Hot Cider Hustle.

Are there any other must-run fall races? I mean, there’s the Sleeping Bear Marathon/Half/5k, but you know I’m already signed up (plus, the race filled up—woo! it’s getting popular). Hit me up if there are other tasty races I should do this fall.
