A Few of My Favorite Things About This RaceRecently, someone asked me why I like to run the First Watch Sarasota Half Marathon & Relay. I return year after year because it's a beautiful course and well-run race. BTW, there's a 10K distance, too! Since we have plenty of time before race day (October 20, 2019) I thought I'd describe some of my favorite things about the race. I'll start with #1 and add the rest every few weeks until race day. Here's my list:

The John Ringling Causeway BridgeAround here, bridges are the closest thing to a mountain or hillside. Florida is flat. A lot of our bridges don't have much elevation either, but the Ringling Bridge is a respectable challenge. It's 60 feet tall and .586 miles long. The bridge connects Sarasota to St Armands Key and Lido Key. Here are some images that show why I enjoy running the bridge not once, but twice in the first few miles of the race.

Another good thing is my discount code. Use BRSARASOTA19 to SAVE $10 Off the Half and Relay or $5 off the 10K. Register before the next price increase. See you on the bridge! #SARASOTABR #BibChat #BibRavePro #RunSarasota #RunTheRingling #RunFlorida #FloridaRunners #WeRunSocial #MRTT
