I don't have to travel very far to fit a lot of races in. Farthest I've gone for a race was less than two hours. If I wanted to, I could probably race every weekend, and some weeknights, while never driving more than an hour to an hour and a half.
Not at it at all.
Good Bad & The Monkey
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

Alot of races at the Jersey shore, too. That's further for me to drive, but still within 2 hours.

Yeah, but it's Jersey, so really not worth it.
Imminent Catastrophe
If money were no object I would love to travel the world to run races. The Loch Ness Marathon would be #1 on my list of races.
