Any Sacramento Area Runners?

Hi All, Just wondering if there are any other Sacramento Runners on MFP. Please add me if you are :)

    I live in Davis. I'm new to running and will be completing my first 5K soon. Have you competed in a lot of races in the Sacramento area?

    Hi! Yes, I've run several races every year in both Sacramento and Davis, which 5K are you training for?

    I'm doing the Let's Roc 5K organized by the Ovarian Cancer Education & Research Network, Inc. I chose this one because my cousin has Ovarian cancer and I wanted to do it in honor of her. It's near Shriner's Hospital on Sept 15th.

    I hope to participate in many more 5K's and eventually work my way up to longer races.

    Do you know of a good website that has information on races in the Sac/Davis area? I tried googling it but there didn't seem to be that many good ones I could find.

    Yes, Fleet feet has information on most of the races in the area and also this site has a pretty comprehensive list as well: http://zinsli.com/events/sacevents.asp. I'll probably run that 5k too, sorry to hear about your cousin, that's one of the reasons I love running charity runs... hopefully money raised can find treatment and cures.
