Are you looking for a Fall Half?
I recommend The Runaway Pumpkin Half!

| Feeling good in the 2012 race! |
It's October 18th in Lebanon, OR (Cheadle Lake Park) at 9:00am.
I have run this race twice and it's one of my favorites for several reasons. I love to race in the Falls (cooler weather). It's a really fun atmosphere with a costume contest. You can walk or run. It's a fundraiser for the ABC House in Albany, OR. The ABC House is a Child Abuse Intervention Center serving Benton and Linn Counties. It also has great food at the end!

There are a number of ways you can help or take part in this awesome fundraiser.
~Run or walk the half marathon. You can register here for $65. Price goes up on Oct 7th.
~Buy a hoodie for $25 here.
~Can't make it? You can support ABC house by being a Virtual Runner for $45 here.
~Volunteer on race day.
The Runaway Pumpkin course is perfect for a beginner or if your looking for a Half PR. Nice and flat. It's a loop course. Partly running along the water. Race is capped at 1500. Currently just over 700 have registered. It is chipped timed. If you like to dress up, there is a contest for the best costume but costumes aren't required. Packet pick-up will be Friday the 18th at the Phoenix Inn & Suites in Albany from 8-4. If you can't make that, you can pick up your packet Saturday morning from 7:00-8:45. You will get your awesome shirt at this time too. There will be age group winner/prizes and the first place male/female will receive a $250 gift card to Lowe's and a free entry for next years race! How sweet is that!?
