Signed Up For The Stonewall Jackson 20 Mile Run

I signed up over the weekend for the 6th Annual Stonewall Jackson 20-Mile Ambulance Run which I’m hoping will be a perfect marathon tune-up race just five weeks before the Richmond Marathon.
I took part in the race in 2006 and somehow managed to finish a surprising 2nd place overall. I collected $50 for my effort which just happened to be the first ever prize money I’d won too.
The 20 Miler is quite a low key race, but comes at a great time before many a fall marathon; perfect for a final long run or in my case a marathon race pace effort with company. All proceeds go to the Civil War Preservation Trust and Spotsylvania Emergency Concerns Association (SECA).

The $50 you got, uh, that makes you a Pro Athlete? Congratulations, all the best of luck as you train for Richmond Marathon
