Good luck Haji! I have the same time goal in Charlotte this weekend.
Are you doing a spring race?
I'm thinking of doing Knoxville on April 1st, but haven't decided for sure.
I haven't decided on a spring race yet. I hear Knoxville is a nice race but not fast due to the hills. Maybe I'll do the Derby City Festival in Louisville, at least it's close to home.
Stayingwarm - It has been so warm lately that today was my first run in the 20s. Not sure if I'll want to go with pants or not. But definitely will be wearing a long sleeve cotton throw away shirt to ditch after 3 or 4 miles. I will definitely be wearing gloves and a headband, once you warm up you can either toss or tuck into your shorts (you may need them later).
I'm leaning toward just wearing shorts but I'm just not acclimated yet to sub freezing temps. I will definitely be keeping an eye on the weather forecast though.
I didn't get in the host hotel but got a room just a block or two away.
Anything to do in town besides the Space Museum? My wife and two sons (15 and 12) will be with me.
