2009 Broad Street Run - Race Recap - Future Running Plans

I participated in the 2009 Broad Street Run - 10 Miler!
http://www.broadstreetrun.com
A 10-mile, point-to-point course (named one of the fastest 10-mile courses in the country by Runner's World) starts at the Central High School Athletic Field at Broad Street and Somerville Avenue. The course is a pleasing run past the varied neighborhoods of Philadelphia along Broad Street. It finishes inside the Philadelphia Navy Yard at the end of Broad Street in South Philadelphia. There are eleven water stations, digital clocks at each Mile, aid stations, port-a-potties, entertainment and numerous ambulances on the course. The course is traffic-free in the south-bound lanes and monitored by police. This course is certified by USATF.

Congrats Tom!! 10 miles is awesome! And now marathon training!!! That is incredible. Ok, here's a question...what's on your playlist for 10 miles??? I need some new songs (just got a shuffle) and I want some upbeat, fast paced songs for running...so what are you listening to? Anyway, you're doing great and I'm so happy for you! Judy :)

Can I take a two-year raincheck? I have to get over the mental hurdle of getting through even my FIRST race before I can think about a marathon. Though it's crazy to think that I watched your vids when you were just starting the c25k. And now you're a mega-runner!
