Cars, Eggs and RACES Cheaper In The Country
If you're not running the first individual HARRA Fall Series race on Sunday, October 12, then the 30th annual Huntsville Half Marathon is the race and the place for you.
The Huntsville Half Marathon - like the United Space Alliance 10-Miler - is one of the best race bargains in Texas. (And I'll be running neither of them, unfortunately! But I should be in attendance for both.)
Right now, it is $25 until October 5 to run the Huntsville Half Marathon! It is one of the cheapest half marathons in Texas. You can wait until the day before, the 10th, and still only pay $30 (in addition to the online fee), and it is only $35 - no online fee - on race day.
Compare this to Ten For Texas, being held on Saturday, October 18, a week later.
Ten For Texas is $45 until September 30th. After that, it becomes THE most expensive 10-miler in the country at $50! Wait until race day and it is a strong $6 per mile - $60. (A marathon at that rate would be $157.20, which is understandable for a place like the ING New York City Marathon. It is one of the greatest spectacles in racing, I believe.)
All of the other huge 10-milers across the country, including Philadelphia's Broad Street Run and the Washington, D.C.'s Army 10-Miler - are cheaper than that.
Moi? I'll be in Alpine, Texas that morning to run Marathon 2 Marathon.

Jon,
Thanks for reminding us about the Huntsville Half and the USA 10-miler - two of our favorites. I will have Ron sign us up. Sorry you won't be running, but we will see you there.
