If you are looking for a fun run and a quick trip out of NYC, look no further.
I put in for the Cherry Blossom 10 miler and didn’t get in. I said to myself, why not do the 5k. My friend and I were excited to go down to DC for the weekend and experience the food and sites.
The morning of the race, we ubered to the race. When we got there, I was able to pick up my shirt and bibs, then watch the mascot, Stumpy the cherry blossom tree interact with the crowd.
I liked this race since it’s flat. It’s a good one to PR on. The cherry blossoms were finishing up by the time of the race…
I’m hoping next year I’m able to get in via the 10 miler lottery and get all 3 medals!
what do you think?
