For those of you interested in a great local run, look no further than the Mission Inn in downtown Riverside. This year the Mission Inn will be hosting its annual 5k and 10 k , and 1/2 Marathon run on Sunday November 4, 2010. I have done the 5k and 10k a few times and have never been disappointed. There is plenty of competition, lots of plenty of support throughout, and the couse  isn’t so bad. I would even say its one of the easier runs I’ve done. For more information please visit their website: www.missioninnmuseum.com/MIR/.  Living this lifestyle on the run, R U?

A rescued Chilean miner who  kept in shape by running the tunnels while he was trapped underground will put the training to good use when he competes Sunday in the 26.2 mile ING New York. All the best of luck to him this Sunday. Lifestyle on the run, R U?
