Have you been bitten by the running bug, or are you just looking for an added incentive to lace up your running shoes? Instead of logging miles around the track or on a treadmill, set your sights on a destination race.
Destination Races give you more than just a race to look forward to — these popular races take you to some of the most sought-after regions in the world. For example, wine country half-marathons combine the excitement of new places with competitive races and the experience of wine country. Of course, these races are for the 21 and older set.
For an all-ages destination race, take on the Great Wall of China with the Great Wall Marathon. This race offers spectacular views and the amazing chance to get up close and personal with one of the mightiest pieces of architecture known to man. It is one of the most challenging marathons and includes participants from around the world.
These races are just a taste of what the running world has to offer. Just think of these races next time you’re cranking out miles on the treadmill. Happy running!
