TC 10 Mile?

Damn!    "Not Selected" email just rec'd.

Now I need to figure out how to keep up the motivation to continue training for my other races after not getting into the race that would have benefited my running the most.

I've got a 10k on Saturday, local sprint (Minnewaska Tri, in Glenwood) on the 6th, Detroit lakes on the 20th, still considering Square Lake, and maybe a race in FL in October that's in between Oly and half distance (2k, 62k, 15k).  My wife is doing the full, so I was hoping to get into the 10 since I'll be there anyways cheering for her.

Oh well, maybe next year.  Good for you getting in and have fun!

so for future knowledge: is there a process for a "extra charitable donation" in order to run the tc 10 mile?  And how much more was it?

You can also register through The Running Room for their TC10mile clinic and if you don't get in via lottery you get automatic entry through them.  They only get a certain number of them each year though so you HAVE to do the clinic to be eligible.  Though - in years past they have had extras because people who were donig the clinic got in on lottery anyway.  You could call them (28th / Hennepin) to see if you can a. still join clinic b. still get entry

I'm doing the full this year for the first time - have done the TC10 for last 5 years.

I've also signed up for the Twin Cities full - (My first marathon!)

Steve are you shooting for sub 60 again?  That was really sweet last year, I was running the marathon wondering if you had completed your goal.

I'm in for the 10 miler this year as well.
