The Running Bucket List

Like many of my fellow runners, I have created a bucket list of future races I would like to participate in prior to the end of this life's journey on earth. Some of these races will be completed within the very near future and some are a few destination races I would hope to run someday. I really think it is important to keep goal races on your list for motivation and to have something to always look forward to when you train.

Here is a list of a few race events that I have on my running bucket list and links to their online sites:
