Lighthouse Loop Race Report, in which I run, and more….
So on Sunday October 26th, I ran the Lighthouse Loop Half Marathon. This was one of those odd little B races. I wanted to do it because I had missed it last year due to injury. It is a pretty fast course with a smaller field. I love lighthouses. If you look back though, my …
