Race Recap: 2017 B.A.A. 10K

Hi friends & Happy Summer!

I kicked off summer ’17 with the Boston Athletic Association (B.A.A.) 10K, the second event of three events in the B.A.A. Distance Medley. I ran the 5K in April and plan on running the half marathon in October!

For those of you considering a trip to Boston, I highly recommend planning a race weekend around one of these B.A.A. races. People of all ages and abilities are welcome, but as you can imagine it is a fast course, with even faster elites at the front. Some of the best athletes in the world come out for the B.A.A. races and it is so exciting to be in the same field as them. And I’m somewhere in the middle! Here’s my recap:

2017 Eat to the Beat Concert Series Lineup Announced!

 

Who else is already as excited as I am about the 2017 Epcot Food & Wine Festival?!

While I won’t be participating in this year’s Wine & Dine Half Marathon weekend, Tommy and I will be heading to F&W in October to sample small plates and beverages from around the world. We can’t wait! There will be plenty of time to celebrate the 22nd annual Food & Wine Festival this year: 75 days to be exact! The longest celebration to-date, beginning August 31 and running through November 13.

Part of the Food & Wine tradition is knowing the “Eat to the Beat” concert series lineup, the musical acts presented on the America Gardens Stage in The American Adventure pavilion in Epcot. Solo artists and bands from the 70s through the 90s (and now early 00s!) will be part of the fun. Walt Disney World Resort JUST announced the concert lineup here and below:
