2012 Fit2Run 4 Miler

Run a Local Race

I just registered to participate in the 2012 Fit2Run 4 miler. The run is sponsored by Fit2Run, the running super store, and takes place at Okeeheelee Park in Greenacres, FL on Saturday, April 28. The park is right next to my apartment, so it's an easy 1/2 to 1 mile warm up run from my apartment to the race start. I'll be able to save a few cents on gas by walking/jogging to the race start instead of taking my mini van. I've done this race in the past and really like running in Okeeheelee Park.
