“This morning, I received an announcement about a brand new relay – the Southern Blue – being managed by the same group that organizes the highly regarded Blue Ridge Relay in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and North Carolina. I don’t know why this makes me so happy, but it does. This would be an excellent race to use to keep up training motivation during the tough winter months. Now if I can just figure out a way to get myself to Georgia…” RunningRelays.com
