Coming soon to a neighborhood near you ... another 10 mile race!

Residents of this Atlanta neighborhood were quick to point out to race officials there's no "s" in the name.
There was an interesting thing during the online signup for the Intown Ten (10K) race. Within the signup was a very short survey asking runners if they would be interested in a 10 mile race in the neighborhood in September.

Without hesitation, I clicked, "Yes."

Nary a word was spoken about this at Sunday's race but they posted the above image on Facebook last Friday. Apparently the September time frame still is in the works.

I've always thought the 10 mile distance was a good one for this city and this race will join the Atlanta Track Club's Atlanta 10 Miler in October and a race I've always wanted to run in, Monday Night Brewing's Westside 10 in December.

I wonder if the course will be similar to the Intown Ten with a few extra miles added to the course or if it will be completely new. There's plenty of space in Va-Hi for it and based on what I know about the 10K course, it will pretty much be hilly.

Can't wait, though!
