The summer is more than halfway over and school is in session. That means the autumn foot racing season draws nigh. The 37th Annual Bill Flodberg Mt. Madonna Challenge, a Gilroy tradition, beckons hardy racers to toe the line in the dirt on Aug. 25.
A plethora of winter races await the athlete. What better way to shed unwanted holiday pounds than to run? One of my favorite mid-chilly season athletic competitions is the Rotary Mission 10 held during the last week of January in San Juan Bautista.
