January 5, 2010: Welcome 2010

Happy New Year!

 

We here at Northland Runner hope all of you had an enjoyable New Year.  With the holiday festivities behind us, it's time to start thinking about the upcoming race season.  We are currently working on gathering race information for 2010.  We have many major races listed already, and we hope to get as much information as we can about small-town races in the next couple weeks.  If we listed a race last year, you can be sure we are contacting the event director to get the 2010 info.  If you know of a new race or one we did not list last year, feel free to e-mail Kris at kris@northlandrunner.com.

 

Welcome to 2010!
