Ahh...a racecation. Who doesn't love to run while they're on vacation? Ok, some people do just the opposite, but not me. I can't imagine a more fun way to spend my days away then running. Especially a race. I just signed up for my 2nd marathon, who knew I'd ever run one 26.2, let alone multiple? But that's another blog post.
Back to my racecation. It's not Fiji, it's not Hawaii, it's not Jamaica. It's not all that tropical at all. It's Portland. Yes, Oregon. They have the 10th largest marathon you know. Super excited to be sharing the road with 10,000+ other runners with mountain views and historic scenery along the way. So what if my trip will be planned around the pasta dinner, the expo and swapping hydration tactics with fellow runners? To me it's the perfect scenario. A long weekend away from home and some new bling to wear home on the plane.
