It's time for another giveaway, courtesy of my friends at RUNdetroit! I've got a free entry to the Southfield Summer Soulstice 5K/10K on Saturday, June 20th. This race is unique because it takes place at sunset. Stick around after the race for music, food trucks, and Michigan craft beer. It sounds like a great time! I'll be running the 10K.
Full details can be found at http://www.southfieldsummersoulstice.com/

Winner will be chosen Friday morning. Please check back to see if you won. Good luck!
I love running in the summer as the sun is rising over the lake in the mornings. It is my favorite time of the day because I can hear my breathe and feel the cool breeze as I make my way along the river. The beautiful colors, boats cruising and birds chirping help me get centered for my day. I always take a moment in between my run to give thanks for the ability to be in motion and just be.
ReplyDeleteMorning runs are a great way to start the day. This sounds beautiful!
DeleteI love night running, so summer makes perfect weather for that. The sunset doesn't hurt, either ;)
ReplyDeleteSummer sunsets are gorgeous! :)
DeleteI love running in the summer because of less clothes, and the runners tan :)
ReplyDeleteYES!
DeleteI love running in the summer because rarely does the weather make it difficult to get out there and do it, no matter what part of the day. Plus, there is quite a bit less guesswork as to what you should wear to run....it's almost always: shoes, socks, shorts, and shirt!
ReplyDeleteIt takes so little time to get ready in the summer! Dressing for a winter run takes half as much time as the actual run! haha
DeleteI like running in the summer because it is NOT cold!
ReplyDeleteThat is reason enough! :)
DeleteI enjoy wogging in Michigan in the summer because it is an easy way to detoxify the body with a good sweat. I also like to wog in Michigan in the summer because Michigan is absolutely beautiful this time of year. So many nature trails, bodies of water, and wildlife. It is really nice to be one with nature while wogging, meditating, and achieving fitness goals.
ReplyDeleteWe are lucky to live in such a beautiful state! :)
DeleteI love seeing all my neighbors (who were hibernating) while out running! It's so fun to catch up!
ReplyDeleteMe too! :)
DeleteWhat I enjoy most about summer running is green grass, flowers, running through the occasional sprinkler and wearing less clothes(ditch the layers). :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's so much more fun in the summer!
DeleteI love summer running because it feels new--new races, new friends, new routes, new shoes. I look forward to exploring through running!
ReplyDeleteI agree, Julie! :)
DeleteThis will be my first run ever! I'm a new runner and a little nervous about my first official race. I was happy to see this was going to be an evening run. I' love running in the evening to beat the midday sun. Looking forward to crossing the finish line.
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you and your first race!
