Danielle 's thoughts:

The Falmouth Road Race is a "small" race in a small town on Cape Cod that draws some big names! The race is managed by Boston Marathon race director Dave McGillivray, so you're guaranteed a good event. This year Boston Marathon winner Meb Keflezighi was there speaking at the expo (and running!) and I had the opportunity to meet him, get a photo & an autograph - most likely not something I'd have been able to do at a bigger race!

One of my favorite things about this race is that their "gift" item is a coffee mug instead of a t-shirt! I don't know about you, but I have more race shirts than I know what to do with, but my Falmouth Road Race mug sits proudly on my desk at work! (Don't worry though, if you're a shirt type of person, there are plenty available for sale!)

The Falmouth Road Race course if gorgeous with coastal views almost the entire way! It starts in picturesque Woods Hole and finishes right outside of downtown Falmouth. The entire town seems to come out for this race to not only cheer on the runners, but to set up their own water stops, play music and hose down hot runners (being in mid-August it's always a hot day!). There are also a few unsuspecting hills (especially one right before the finish line!), so while it's only 7 miles, be sure to pace yourself!

Entry for this race is a lottery though, so be sure to enter while it's open!
