While I didn’t need arm warmers, this morning’s run was considerably cooler than the heat we’ve been laboring in over the past few months.
Could fall be around the corner? Why it certainly can be!!
How can I be so sure? (I mean, besides looking at a calendar?)
I know autumn is here because it’s cross country season!

It always seems like summer is finally winding down when cross country races pop up on the calendar.
This year, for your running pleasure, there are three PAUSATF Grand Prix cross country races in the Sacramento area. These races are quite competitive as they draw talented runners from across Northern California.
It was a little hot, but there was a good crowd on hand as The River City Rebels hosted the first of these races today in Granite Regional Park: the First Annual Rebels XC Challenge
Today’s race followed the usual format, with separate races for women, masters men, and open men. For this race, the women ran 5K and the men ran 7K.
