Just signed up for the San Juan Ten Miler. A neat flat race at an interesting distance that I have not run every year as it usually lands on a working Saturday. This year not! So I am in. This race, many years ago was my fastest. I ran 10 miles in under seven minutes a mile. Ain't gonna happen this time, but am looking forward to it.
This event is in its 25th year. It is sponsored by the Hollister Rotary Club and all proceeds go to benefit local scholarships and charities. San Juan Bautista is a small California Mission town just off Hwy 101 approximately 50 miles south of San Jose. The two races, one 10 miles and one 5k in distance, both start and finish in front of the historic and beautiful San Juan Mission. The area is rural and the course takes runners through farm land and up the Anzar hills. Medals are awarded three deep in standard age categories. We also hand out door prizes. The 10 mile race is particularly good training for upcoming spring marathons. Fees include LS-shirt. Good training for marathon base. Both races timed w/awards.
