Hello from the sky!
This morning I woke up at a ridiculous time to get to LAX for a 6:30am flight. Luckily, even though LA is a bit north SkinnyRunner and I got there with time to spare (and take silly pics).
Seriously, it was so early I was still asleep standing up…
Ha!
I am on my way to Pennsylvania for the Runner’s World Hat Trick – 5k, 10k and half marathon weekend. It’s in Bethlehem, PA. I’m super excited because this is a race and place I would never have had the chance to see if not for RW!
I’m really thankful I get this opportunity. Being from SoCal I live like it’s an island and races are really the only reason I get to see the rest of the country! It makes me happy.
Since I’m runnin’ a race this weekend I wanted to share a few race discounts and deals with you:
Santa to the Sea Half Marathon (Dec 8 Oxnard, CA) use coupon code AXSANTAEXTEND for $10.00 off
Camarillo Marathon (Jan 5 Camarillo, CA) use code MOLIVAS141 for 20% off
Looks like my schedule is pretty busy the next few days! Follow me on Twitter and Facebook for updates and randomness.
**NEW Race Discounts are added to my Race Discounts Page all the time!
Question: What’s one place in the US you really want to see?
Me – Savannah.
Erin says
Alaska! Running a race there next year will give me a reason to see it….now I just need to pick a race. Savannah is a great city. You would love it!!
Sue says
New York! Never been to the US. 🙁
Livi says
I want to go to as many national parks as possible! Appalachian Trail here I come 🙂
Liz @ Carpe Diem and Run says
I LIVE IN PA. You will have so much fun here … 🙂
Lib says
Best of luck, you seem very excited. Hopefully the weather is good for you, it’s sounds like the race will be very popular, being in such a nice place 🙂
Jenn says
Leggings are not pants. Cover ur ass
Anon says
^^^^ someone’s got a fat ass and is a little jealous! 😉
runeatrepeat says
They are Lulu wunder under pants and I will wear them the way I’d like. If you don’t like the way I dress I kindly suggest reading a fashion blog 🙂
Suzanne says
Enjoy the fall colors of the leaves and the nice, crisp weather we’re going to have this weekend! Wish I was doing the runs, especially the hat trick. One day! My goal is to start doing runs in places outside of Philadelphia–one day I’d like to do Bay to Breakers in San Fran or the Big Sur Marathon.
Oh, and I 2nd, 3rd, 4th the Brew Works recommendation! There is a lot of cute shopping around Bethlehem, but be warned: it’s pretty hilly on the main street.
Maureen says
I HAVE to see the Grand Canyon before I die!
leigh @ beach and back runner says
I’ll be there this weekend too! 🙂
On my list – Utah, New Orleans, California, Seattle, Portland!
I’ve hit most of the East coast … really want to get out west!
Susan says
On my list is Alaska and the all New England states. And I desperately need to get back to Hawaii. I’ve “been to” several states but in 2010 set the goal to run a half in each state – 15 down & a long way to go.
Laura says
I am doing the hat trick this weekend as well…hope to meet you 🙂 I really really really want to go to Hawaii! Saving up my pennies…..
Gigi says
I will be at RW too!!! Have a great race!
Ashley says
Maine and the far North East, during the summer or fall when it’s not brutal.
Kim says
I grew up in the Allentown/Bethlehem area and you’ll have a blast in the Lehigh Valley. If you’re staying in Bethlehem you have to try BrewWorks (it’s off of Main St). Have fun! And if you have time check out the Sands Casino. It’s really, really cool on the inside.
Sarah G. says
Have a great time in Bethlehem! If you have a change to stop by Bethlehem Brew Works before you leave, you won’t regret it! It would be a great stop for some post-race refreshments 🙂
I would love to go anywhere out West where there’s lots of pretty scenery for me to run through!
val says
Ill be there this weekend, the weather is perfect!
Savannah has been on my list for a long long time followed by Austin.
Taylor @ Single-tracked Mind says
I used to live in SB and would love to run either of those races!
Jojo @ RunFastEatLots says
Have a great trip! The Hat Trick sounds fun 😀
I want to see the pacific north west. Especially the redwoods!
Britt @ Fit Fit Britt Britt says
Savannah is beautiful! I went there en route to Hilton Head a year and a half ago and would love to stay there for more than a day! I really want to go somewhere on the west coast- Seattle/San Diego/etc. and see the Pacific Ocean 🙂
Kristi says
I would love to see Seattle!
MartinaNYC@runtomakeadifference says
Oh my, there are so many places in the US that I’d love to visit! However, my biggest dream is to drive coast to coast and visit all those places in the middle of nowhere.
Annie says
Alaska!!! My sister lived there for a year last year and ever since she moved, I have been kicking myself for not visiting her then.
Kristin @ W [H] A T C H says
Have a great time at the RW Festival!
Jess @ Flying on Jess Fuel says
Do you know if the santa to the sea code works for the 5k????
Becky @ Olives n Wine says
My goal is to get to Hawaii in the next year! It’s on my list and looks amazing.
Deirdre | Oh Well Whatever says
Have fun!!
I really, really want to go to the Orca Islands up in Washington. Someday.
Johanna B says
The Grand Canyon up close.
Brynn Guster says
I love traveling for a race. It is a great excuse to see a new area while getting in a great run. I live in Michigan, so maybe a trip out West would be a nice treat in the winter! Discounts are always a bonus 🙂
SkinnyRunner says
estas muy guapa cuandos tus ojos estan cerrados.
runeatrepeat says
Gracias flaca
Bethany says
Good luck in PA! If looks like fun. I would love to see the Grand Canyon one day.
Sarah says
I really wish I was doing this one this year! I just found out about it and it was too late to work it into my schedule. It’s on the list for next year!
Have a wonderful time 🙂
Karin says
Good luck in Bethlehem! I am volunteering at the Hershey Half that is also this weekend just down the road. You should try that one sometime….lot’s of opportunity for fun pics with the Hershey Candy characters, haha
runeatrepeat says
Do I get chocolate if I run it? If so, I’m in.
Maria says
Mall of America!
Just kidding. I’d love to visit San Fran and basically all of Cali.
Jen says
The New England States in the Fall. Always been a dream vacation for me! Have fun running this weekend!
Jenny says
Enjoy your time here in PA! The weather is going to be perfect this weekend! Sending hugs from Hershey, pa! 🙂
Christine @ BookishlyB says
A tie between Seattle and Yellowstone. Have fun this weekend! You’re going to need a massive recovery week!
runeatrepeat says
Yellowstone POURED on me, I need to go back to recreate the memory without the ‘build your tent in the rain’ part.
Christine @ BookishlyB says
Not fun. I’m more of a “stay at a hotel with electricity” kind of girl, myself.
Jessica R @ fromthekitchentotheroad says
I don’t know if it is really that exciting but my husband likes Nashville a lot. I would like to go there and see what it is all about. I also want to go to the Carolina’s
Kacie @ Lace up with Kace says
Hawaii for sure!
Taylor @ Liftingrevolution says
Have a great time! Being from Charleston, I’m just a short drive to Savannah, after reading midnight in the garden of good and evil, I fell in love with the city… until I visited.
Definitely check it out, the history is amazing but then visit Charleston!
I want to visit Boulder, CO.
Suzanne says
Charleston is AWESOME!!
Tracy says
Well I actually get to see it this weekend…San Francisco!!! I’m leaving tomorrow to run the Nike Womens Marathon…my 1st full!
runeatrepeat says
Good luck!
Sophie @ life's philosophie says
I want to go to California! I’ve been to San Fran which was awesome, but I want to explore all the other parts! Oh and I’m dying to go to Denver. Basically anywhere out West where there is space and real mountains!
Sara @ LovingOnTheRun says
I have always either wanted to run the Nashville Marathon or the Disney Marathon – would love to go to both of those places!
Tartanjogger @tartanjogger.com says
Me? New Orleans.
And Las Vegas. And San Francisco. And New York. And Chicago. And abd and…
runeatrepeat says
New Orleans was on my list until this year when I crossed it off! Fun fun 🙂
Angela - webeatfat.com says
The northwest! Running lets me see the country too! Good luck on your Hat Trick!
Aimee - funfitgirl says
SoCal!! When can I come visit??
